We bought this kit to make a set of furniture for my seven-year-old’s dolls. It is definitely a project for an older child or an adult, although my daughter enjoyed working with me on it. It took us many, many hours. The pieces come in four sheets and need to be punched out. A diagram on paper shows which pieces go together . . . for example, a little table has slots 1, 2, 3, 4 while the matching table sides/legs will have tabs numbered 1, 2, 3, 4. However, nothing is labeled “table, chair, etc. ” so it takes some guesswork and time to figure out how the pieces actually are assembled. Also, I would advise that you only punch out the pieces for the item you are currently assembling! All pieces were present and they all fit after a little work. We put them together using Aleene’s Original Tacky Glue, painted them with primer, then added details with acrylic craft paints. Very, very cute in the end. Polly Pocket was happy . . . although her feet stick off the ends of both beds when she lies down. Fortunately, that little detail doesn’t matter to my seven-year-old! You can’t beat the price, and it is an enjoyable project to work on with a child if you have 10 or more hours to spare. The furniture won’t come apart if it is well glued and heavily painted. It could be crushed by a careless foot, however.

I gave this as a gift for a 10 yr old and while she needed some help to put the set together and also gluing it, she had lots of fun painting it by herself.
It allows for very creative design if you provide the basic paint colors and give the child a color wheel(just google color wheel and you can print one out free) that shows how to mix secondary colors. Also gold, silver, and copper metallic paint or paint pens are a great add on. . . . . be sure to buy at least one decent small detail brush so they can add flowers or other small details.
This set a bit small for the 1/12 dollhouse but is the perfect size for the older metal dollhouse (1950′s) she has. All in all I’d say she had more fun making the furniture than she has had playing with it in the dollhouse.
It has held up well with normal play and is a very good value if you want something for the child to both create and then play with.

Great for teaching connecting the different pieces-exactly like puzzles except more challenges. . . in 3-D. Enjoyed every moment with my kids. Only thing is that it is not exactly durable to be used for daily play at the doll house.
