Comments left:	Hi, I'm wondering about a learning toy I had as a child before all the electronic games/computer toys. My vague memory is that it had a tray that cardboard square question cards could go in, and then there was a yellow plastic figure (a man, or maybe a clown?) that had a kind of straw-sized pole that he was attached to that fit inside the holes of the question cards. A question card I think had pictures and stories, but if it had any math, it would be like 2+3= and then if you put the figure thing in the hole next to the number five, a green dot would appear in his tummy area, I think. Maybe part of his buttons on his vest or something? I can't quite remember. I just remember being amazed that he could tell which hole was the correct hole! Then, when I was older I figured out that some holes were deeper than other holes, and I made my own play cards with questions when I played school. Any ideas what this toy was called?
