Why are character-vehicles so fascinating for so many pre-school children? I'm not sure we're qualified to answer that question, however, we do have our own card model contribution to such anthropomorphic antics.

There are a couple of relatively simple models here. Firstly, an Armada original creation; The Little Tipper Truck and secondly, an animal die. The animal die is a simple cube that fits conveniently in the Tipper Truck's rear container. Each face of the die has an image of a mammal regularly found at the zoo.
The tipper truck model really needs to be constructed by an adult or older child but the animal die is suitable for assembly by a younger child (with adult assistance in cutting and scoring).
The simple premise for the song, embedded at the top of this page, is that the tipper truck is too busy to go and see the animals at the zoo. The song lists half a dozen creatures that the tipper truck might have seen.
Hey bambinos! Why not sing the tipper truck song yourself. As you sing, take the dice and throw it to find out what animal the tipper truck is thinking of next.
Whatever you choose to do, we hope you have fun with this cheeky little truck.
