Nice tips, I always just use mine at break and lunchtimes, our school hasn't banned them because by the time you get to high school nobody plays with them anymore, they're more interested in confiskating phones and stuff.
Im Ell, Im 14, I loved my tama when I was younger(I had a v1) but it broke and I never got another, but I just got a v4.5 a couple of days ago and I love it. His names Penny(accidentally gave him a girls name, lol) and he's currently 1 year old.
