Touch the truck!

Here the Americans know how to make a simple and interesting. This weekend went with her son to the event under the name - «Touch-a-Truck». If we translate the forehead, you get a "touch a truck", which in Russian sounds a bit sloppy. But not the essence. The whole event is simple and brilliant in the extreme. On the street they brought a bunch of different machines and started to children. Here you can touch everything and everywhere you can climb. Actually all. But how much happiness and joy in the end. My son, like most, was not to pull the ears. Gone with tears in his eyes after 4 hours of non-stop climbing on the trucks, and it was still not enough. Now the big question - when will be even?
