Summary: Nicely made, but T. Rex does not stand on its own
Comment: I made the T. Rex model with my three children, ages 8, 6 and 5. For a model made of balsa wood, it was of good quality. The pieces were pre-cut and the children were able to punch the pieces out themselves, with the exception of a few pieces that were too difficult for my five year old.
The kids had fun putting it together. Only the older two were able to follow the diagram with my help. The pieces fit together tightly (a good thing for stability) and therefore, all three children needed help fitting together certain pieces. This didn't detract too much from the fun because they were able to start the fitting themselves, while I only one tightened the fit.
We have tried several different ways of fitting the legs and feet together, however we cannot get the T. Rex to stand on its own. Otherwise I would have given this toy a 5 star rating.
