A memory game on modelling and technical themes is a game for children and, incidentally, a way of meeting machine types long before a first kit. Cards showing aircraft, vehicles or ships are matched in pairs, and when the game ends everything goes back in a small box, so nothing takes up bench space. The format is self-explanatory, needs no reading and works just as well on a train as at a table. The next step for a child who starts naming the aircraft on the cards is a model that needs neither glue nor paint, in snap-fit model kits; for the same age there are also colouring books on modelling subjects.
