I figured it out pretty quick. All you need is a small screwdriver or something similar to pry it apart and then put it correctly back together.

The TOG​

Screwdriver? Waaaaay too complicated.

TOG

We have one out of two left. When Lexy was a kid she got frustrated and heated the stickers with a hairdryer, I think. Pulled them off and stuck them back in order.

I actually did do one once but I've never been able to do it again?

I have a booklet on how to solve the Rubik's cube, but I still can't solve the flipping thing.

You need a lot of patience; they were all the rage about 30-35 years ago...

Once upon a time there were girls playing with toys in the big eastern cities.
Then one boy, wanting to put the make on all the girls he could, decided to join in on the hop scotch game.
Boy, did he have success.
All the other city boys starting doing the same thing.

my younger sister had a dollhouse, made of metal but mine was better....I had a farm set, big barn, animals and equipment, and even a silo with a conveyer belt that worked.

Bikes are the best, big balloon tires, great for balancing acts.
