Since my son is five, I worried if he had the attention span required for this project. But this proved unnecessary since once opened, it was hard to make him stop at just one. This kit comes with everything you need make 4 mosaic pictures that can be hung up to display.
The best way I can describe this craft is that it's like paint by numbers except you place small mosaic tiles on numbered spaces instead of paint. The mosaics are on a pad with paper that needs to be peeled off in order to stick on the dragon picture.
My only complaint, and not worth deducting a full star, is that the mosaic pads are not labeled with numbers. You get a dragon picture with numbers on it to place the corresponding mosaics but the mosaic key only provides a color guide. Placing numbers on the back of the mosaic pad would be perfect rather then guessing. Also, you might need to keep track of the mosaic pads with younger kids in order to preserve every mosaic tile needed to finish all four pictures.
I highly recommend this dragon kit for younger ones since the pictures do not contain as many numbered tiles as others . This is a great art project for boys and I plan on buying more since they have been a huge hit. A great way to spend a rainy day!
