Suppose you were going on a years long space voyage to Mars. Transporting material goods into space is extremely costly, so maximizing play value relative to weight and volume is quite important. You're limited to toys weighing no more than 10 lbs. And the toys can generate little or no waste. Assume for the sake of argument there's artificial gravity in some parts of the ship, but very little room.
What physical toys would you bring to entertain the kids? (Assume for the sake of argument that notepad computers loaded with video games are already included.)
My picks: Legos, plasticene clay, GI Joe/Barbie dolls, army men.
