Statue of Liberty 3-D Puzzle

I have always loved those big foam 3-D puzzles of castles and houses that you can build and leave on display. Unfortunately, they can be somewhat expensive, and then there's the "oops, we lost a piece!" factor. You can only imagine my excitement when I saw these little kits, which include everything you need to build a miniature foam landmark. Inexpensively priced, each box includes a sheet of pictorial instructions and sheets of full-color, printed foam pieces. Assembly is quick and easy - just punch the pieces out of the foam, connect the slots and tabs together, and voila! You have a very impressive-looking monument you can use for display or decoration. I really can't say enough about them. The finished result is sturdy too, even though the pieces aren't glued. Each project has a base of some sort, so you can pick them up and move them, even drop them without causing any permanent damage. Zach assembled our sample, the White House, several months ago, and it's been gracing a group of file cabinets ever since. With a diverse group of buildings and landmarks to choose from, you can try one with your next history, geography or architecture unit, or build and display them just for fun! - Jess
