The completed Tyrannosaurus (pronounced "Ty-RAN-oh-SAW-rus") Woodkit is 13 inches tall and a nice representation of what scientists believe to be the largest known carnivore that ever walked the earth. The Tyrannosaurus ("tyrant lizard") had monstrous jaws lined with 7-inch long serrated teeth that could cut through flesh like steak knives.
All Woodkits are very versatile and can be thought of as a 3D puzzle, a model, a display and even a craft project. Older kids will love to build these fun kits by themselves or with friends, while younger kids will enjoy spending time with a favorite adult as you work together on this fun building activity. Everyone will love to proudly display their finished Woodkit project.
The kit contains light-weight wooden sheets precut in the correct shapes and sizes necessary to build a specific design. Simply remove the pieces from the sheets and start your assembly. Each kit also includes simple to follow instructions and a small piece of sand paper so you can lightly sand any rough edges. Glue may be needed/desired for a strong permanent assembly.
These kits are designed to be built and displayed but we found that if you don't glue them you can take them apart and rebuild them much as you might a jigsaw puzzle. Alternatively, if you do decide you want to build and display your Woodkit project you might consider adding you own style. Use your existing paints, markers, stickers, glitter, beads, etc to make this a truly imaginative craft project.
