4.0 out of 5 stars Fun project but NOT for kids ages 4 to 10!!, December 20, 2006

This review is from: Easy-to-Make Castle (Dover Children's Activity Books) (Paperback)
Whoever identified this as for kids ages 4 to 10 must not have any experience with kids. It took me (a middle-aged mom with an advanced degree and great fine-motor skills) about two hours to put one together. I needed tiny, sharp scissors - a must to do this project right. It came out great and my kids (ages 9 and 10) enjoyed doing the last part of the project, but they would have been very frustrated trying to do the whole thing. GRADES 4 to 10 is more like it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun, Fast, Easy Project, May 31, 2008
By 
R. J. Abbott (Johnson City, TN USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Easy-to-Make Castle (Dover Children's Activity Books) (Paperback)
This castle was easy to assemble, as advertised. The only real problem I came up against was that it does not come with any sort of base, though there is one shown in the cover illustration. I had to buy something separately since I had nothing useful on hand, but I had fun dressing up my base the way I liked. This castle is a very basic design but was a great project for me, since I'd never worked with paper models before.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good starter project for tweens, July 20, 2011
By 
K. Smith (La Canada, CA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Easy-to-Make Castle (Dover Children's Activity Books) (Paperback)
My 9yo son needed a bit of help getting started, but once he got the well assembled, he got the idea and was able to finish it. It's a good, basic project to start with to learn paper assembly. I agree there is no way a 4yo could assemble it. My 13yo thought it looked fun, and now wants to try it-his brother wouldn't share!

The paper is card stock, so fairly sturdy.
