Be prepared for hours of cutting and folding the intricate pieces of this wonderful temple. My son is 13 and fairly precise in his work, and it was quite difficult for him to assemble this project without help. Not that helping is a bad thing, though. We spent a great deal of time talking about the architecture, what materials would have been used, how large structures would have been raised, and what the cut-out figures were doing (some of them are very small). Absolutely necessary tools: flexible metal ruler, bone folder, thin-bladed scissors, Tacky glue.

I have made alot of the cut-out models by Usbourne and this Egyptian model is by far my favorite! Rated from 1-10 on difficulty level I would say that it is an 8. It is challenging but not too hard for a young kid. The end result is so impressive that it is totally worth it!

It's a good bit of crafty fun, but where does someone come off selling it for $250 when it RETAILED for $9.95?!
