2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed, January 2, 2008

This review is from: Bloco Toys - Dragons and Reptiles (Toy)

I thought this toy looked great for my 5-year old son. The pieces are colorful and seem fairly durable, but my son cannot put these animals together on his own. It took me almost 30 minutes to figure out the dragon. Once together, we were very disappointed that the dragon is flimsy and falls apart when handling. What's the point if children can't play with the animals? I am super disappointed in this product for the price and would not reccomend it for young children.

My son and I had a great time building these dragons. He is 4 and love every minute. It was good that they didn't take too long because he would lose interest.

This review is from: Bloco Toys - Dragons and Reptiles (Toy)

My 5 yr old and his friend have spent two half-hour sessions happily assembling lizards. Similiar to Lego products where assembly is illustrated step-by-step, there were only a few places where the parts were hard to distinguish, so Mom stepped in to help. My only problem with this toy, just like Lego creations, what to do with them once they're assembled?! A good quiet time activity for vacation or rainy-day.
