This is so beautiful! My grandson loved making it and gifted it to his grandfather for Christmas.

It was a fun activity for the 4 year old to put together (with help). He enjoyed using the crank to make the figures move. The lower location of the crank was a little difficult to turn easily, so we put it on a stand when using.

This was a lot of fun to build with my 6 year old. He needed some guidance to make sure he was following the instructions specifically. The adhesive strips that hold the reindeer and Santa’s sleigh onto their posts failed after a day or two so consider using some glue.

This one was cute. The turning mechanism needed a little tweaking to be smoother, but it was still doable the way it was. Granddaughter loved it.

This box was fantastic. My 6 year old grandson had a great time assembling it. The precise instructions were very easy to follow and the result made him feel very proud. This is our third project from Kiwico and we have enjoyed them all. I have given several friends with grandchildren information about the kits and how much we enjoy them.

My 4 year old grandson was able to help with most of the set-up - it is fun and it works!
