Most of us have never thought about building an educational toy by ourselves. If we need a learning toy or something, we simply go to the nearest store and buy it. However, things are not as easy in some countries. With families even having no food to put on the table, they will never think about buying educational toys.
So how can one get these kids interested in science? This was a question that worried the Indian engineer Arvind Gupta so much that he decided to give up a good job and spend his life making toys from things that people no longer want or need!
While still a college student, Mr Gupta volunteered to teach the children who were too poor to go to school. Upon graduation(毕业), he found a good job and spent the next five years designing trucks.

But he soon realized that this was not something he wanted to do for the rest of his life. He thought he needed to receive some training, so he took part in the Hoshangabad Science Teaching Program which was to make science fun and exciting for poor children using available materials.
Mr Gupta found the whole project so satisfying that he decided to leave his high-paying job and focus his attention on designing educational toys that were not only cheap and easy to build, but also full of scientific principles(科学原理), so that children could get interested in this interesting subject.
When the Internet started becoming a more widespread learning tool, Mr Gupta created a website and also recorded over 250 videos.
Today, over 50,000 children and teachers visit the website daily to download the videos for the toy creations based on cool science. Some young children have become so inspired that they have even won international science competitions.
