LEGO Zoo #0014: Audio Tour Kiosk

This week's playset is a little outdated in the age of smartphones, but it was a fun challenge to try to replicate in LEGOs.  At a lot of museums and zoos you can rent a pre-recorded audio tour from the audio tour kiosk:

This kiosk provides headsets that are programmed to provide information about the animals in a particular enclosure when the corresponding numeric code is entered:

The theming in the kiosk uses the motif of insects to relate the complex communication methods used by insects to the information provided by the audio tour.  You have your choice of headsets from a variety of colorful beetles:

Will has already selected a headset and is enjoying learning all kinds of fascinating facts about the audio tour kiosk:

The cashier desk repeats the insect motif with a sculpture of butterflies and beetles:

Guests with smartphones can also get information about education apps they can use throughout the zoo.

WARNING:  When using the audio tour, look both ways before crossing keeper pathways:
