Lego City Space Mars Research Shuttle
(Lego $39.99)
Our five-year old tester loved this 273-piece Mars Research Shuttle kit that he was able to build pretty much by himself! Once it was done he had good fun using it for dramatic play. The Shuttle is 9 inches long with a cockpit that opens, as do the cargo doors. A good-sized Mars rover has a grappling arm, a helidrone has spinning rotor blades and a scanner and the set includes two action figures. Our tester’s favorite —an astronaut with a golden helmet. The pictorial instructions introduce kids to the way of working step by step in small doable parts that add up to success. Important work skills learned in play. Marked for 5 and up.
