This review is from: Elenco OWI Jungle Robot (Toy)

My 9 year old needed his dad's help following the directions to put it together. But we are pleased with the final product. He especially enjoys making the noise to start it up. This was the first robot he has ever put together. I think it helped him to learn how the gears make it move.
