* In the Creator/WilliamTenn short story "Child's Play" a rather sad-sack lawyer (from the "present day", i.e., late 1940s) accidentally receives a "Bild-A-Man" kit from the future, an educational toy---a sort of futuristic home chemistry set---that allows children to create artificial living creatures, even including duplicate human beings. The protagonist eventually winds up making a ''human baby'', only to realize (after it's too late to do anything about it) that he forgot to give the kid a navel.
