My kids can focus on putting it together, or just using the built toy for imaginative play. Instructions were clear and my 7 year old was mostly able to build it on his own. Review: Excellent product - Actual product was excellent. It was a Christmas present for my 8 year old neice. She loved it. I "supervised" but it was easy to put together but challenging enough to keep her interested. Clear instructions. She realized she installed 1 piece upside down when she was 80% finished and it was easy to make the change with the supplied fasteners. She loved the little robots and when she gets tired of them, they can turn into a gumball or small candy machine. I took away 1 star not because of the product but the shipping. Some idiot shipped it directly in it's box with the packing label slapped right on the front, which for a present, made it pretty disappointing. Get the toy though, the kids will love it. ## Features - βœ” STEM EDUCATIONAL TOY: A 52-piece vending machine robot kit that combines play with STEM learning, sparking curiosity and technological understanding. - βœ” BUILD A RETRO-STYLE ROBOT: Construct a charming retro vending machine robot that doubles as an interactive toy with dispensable prize-packed capsules. - βœ” COLLECT & BUILD 12 TOYS: Each capsule contains pieces that can be assembled into a separate toy robot, encouraging problem-solving abilities and fine motor skill development. - βœ” EXPLORE MECHANICAL ENGINEERING: Delve into the basics of mechanical engineering with this immersive build kit, complete with clear, user-friendly instructions. - βœ” FUN-FILLED SURPISES FOR AGES 8 & UP: Fill the empty capsules with fun treats and toys to surprise your friends and family.
