WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
This cartoony, 4-3/4" tall plastic animal is hiding behind a big black mustache. Wait, it's not a mustache -- it's a pair of flexible fan blades. You add (2) "AA" batteries, turn on the switch and the bear, elephant, lion or tiger blows a wild breeze. The colorful fan stands on a flat surface, fits in your hand, or hangs around your neck on a cord with a break-away safety device. We'll choose two different wild animals for you.

Sextants came along after astrolabes but before GPS. (Just like you.) They're used for finding latitude and the distance between objects, and are still the non-electric, non-satellite-dependent back-up for navigators. Ours is a beauty in solid brass with glass optical components, at a tiny price. Measures approx 4-5/8" x 4-1/4" x 3-1/4" OA and comes in a very nice wooden case. Includes instructions for use, which you're going to need unless you went to Annapolis where they still teach it because computers can still go all kaflooey. (Note that well before computers started going kaflooey, compasses and sextants lost an adventurer here and there, too, so don't call us if you and the sextant set out for Madagascar and end up in Iceland.) Sorry, due to overwhelming popularity we are sold out of the sextants.

C'mon baby, light someone's fire with this magnesium and flint fire-starter kit. The 3" steel hack-saw-type blade and a 3-1/8" x 3/8" x 1-1/8" hunk of magnesium, with a rod of flint embedded in one long side, are on a keychain for carrying but are easily removed from it. With the serrated edge of the blade, shave some Mg into a small pile of tinder. Strike the flint with the opposite edge to spark the tinder-Mg's interest, and you're Prometheus.
