My 5 year old daughter loved this kit! She enjoyed the excavation the most. The paleontologist notebook was also really cool! We also enjoyed making the dinosaur imprints.

This was hands down my kid’s favorite kit so far. She normally discards the books and gets right into it. She couldn’t get enough! I even had fun getting whacked with the mallet. She loved the book and chart. Especially the one that showed the size difference between kids and dinos.

The rubber dinosaur parts don't stay together especially the feet but otherwise really cute
