Publisher's Description of Chinese House 600 Piece Mini Bricks Construction Set
The Chinese House branches out from our European base. This model is a little different as not only do you have to construct your building, there is also some painting involved, so as to bring out the vibrant red in the design. Rated at 5 years plus to 99 it would keep the whole family entertained.
This model is slightly bigger than our main range with 600 pieces. The measurements are 170mm X 125mm X 140mm
The Wise Elk plaster range are all made from natural materials. The bricks are made from Plaster, the roofing tiles are made from Ceramic and the base is Cardboard. It is put together using PVA glue and is Reusable! Simply put the bricks into water for a short time and you can easily separate and then rebuild. Follow the design or use your imagination.
Stone and brick have been the construction material of great building projects for thousands of years. Introduce your young builder to these materials with these quality sets from Wise Elk. Realistic-looking stones, bricks, and tiles are made from plaster and are connected with safe, non-toxic glue. Sets also include a cardboard base on which to build your project and an instruction booklet to guide the building process. Since these sets do not just snap together, more advance thinking, planning, and fine motor skills are required. Don't worry, though - if you mess up on your project, soaking it in water dissolves the glue so you can rebuild it. Projects include generic structures such as a mill, lighthouse, and church, but also more advanced historic buildings such as a Mayan pyramid and the Lighthouse of Alexandria. The finished models have an air of quality that anyone can be proud of.
