The 4 Ps applies. Anyway hope the XOs can arrive/be available for XoD on Nov 16!
If you can get a few children.. then the XOs in the Box experiment is worth trying. Wrap the box into a box present box. Then tell the 4 or more children (depending on how many XOs) that today you all will have a present to play with SOME basic rules e.g. NO FIGHTING, etc
Then hands off and let the camera roll...... If the children ask "how.. this or that..." just say you all can solve and learn together
XoD!
