Gears - science teaching (SG4 hitchin)

Remote control car (SG4 hitchin)
Gifted
Flips over and kind of climbs up walls as wheels tumble around. Works but you have to charge it immediately before using it and the charge gets all used up after about 10 mins of use. Kids love it though!

LCD writing pads (SG4 hitchin)
Gifted
Two lcd writing pads. The writing is really faint but it might just be because the batteries in them are really old CR2016 button batteries. I just replaced them but I think the batteries we had in the drawer are old.

Kids walkie-talkies (SG4 hitchin)
Gifted
These mostly work - one of them works fine and you can listen and talk through it. The other can only listen - you can’t speak through it. Each one takes 4 x AAA batteries. If you do get these, take the batteries out when not in use as they drain down when you’re not using it, even if it’s switched off.

“Floating” picture frame - fix (SG4 hitchin)
Gifted
NEEDS FIXING: This is a picture frame that has two pieces of glass for sandwiching a picture between the two so it looks like the picture is “floating” in the middle. The black bit used to be stuck to the front glass but it has come off, so the glass and picture keep falling out of the frame when the frame is propped up. Fixable I think if you want to have a go!
