So when Boy got a Rubik's Cube gift one day, he asked his Ah Ku to teach him.
It seemed a pretty tall order ... but both guys rose to the challenge.
It took a lot of time, practice and persistence (and patience!!). Ah Ku was very systematic, and Boy practiced hard to master each step before bugging his uncle to teach the next step.

But amazingly, Boy did learn to solve the Rubik's Cube. (Something Mummy will never be able to do in her lifetime.)
Here's a video of him in action with a dexterity that belies his 8 years of age!
