Hey snacker,
Last year my brother put a few boxes with nuts, bolts, washers, etc. (anything that would make noise) as presents for my kids (9 and 11 at the time). Of course they picked them up and started shaking them. You should have seen the look on their faces[X(]! Bad Uncle, bad bad bad.
I have to remember that one.... ! Of course, I'd get them "real" presents too, but have them open the "bad" ones first...
The bad uncle did get them real presents, but as you say, had them open the bad ones first. Still, he let us in on the joke before hand. It was pretty funny.
So this year, my wife got my son the Tiger 60 kit, and she got me the Top Flight Sea Fury kit. Of course, he and I have already started building the Tiger.
