My 7 yo son is onto dinosaurs and some friends gave the stegosaurus version of this kit to him for his birthday. While I recommend using tools other than those included in the kit (they are small, plastic and will turn this into a real time fossil dig). The substrate is extremely compacted, so metal tools make this more fun. As for critics of the quality of the skeleton; what do you expect for such a price? They have good detail and proportionality but if you desire to havethe bones stay in place over the long term, one word: glue. That said, this is about enjoying something with your child, that they enjoy. It's about the process not the end product! Great activity to engage with a child interested in Dinos!!!!
