This Lego set is worth the money, considering you can build 3 dinosaur models from 1 kit! My 7-year old twins love it and it is a great family activity. The set comes with 3 instruction booklets where your children learn to follow the diagrams to build their dinosaurs. It challenges their mind while having fun. The process of constructing encourages thinking as they translate 2 dimensional pictures to 3 dimensional objects. With smaller pieces, the set also encourages manual dexterity. One disadvantage is the somewhat complex designs and the time it takes to finish one figure, which can frustrate a young child who will end up walking away from his/her project. Additionally, the instruction booklet could use better fidelity in showing the piece colors. For some colors, what is shown in the booklet does not quite match the color of the actual piece, which can lead to assembly mistakes. When this happens, you end up pulling a bunch of pieces apart and going back to the drawing board. The same observation holds for how the pieces are illustrated versus how the pieces actually look. Finally, it is very easy to lose parts as some of them are no bigger than 1cm. But, at the end of they day, when your kid decides to walk away from the project, you can always pick it up and finish it yourself! No one said this set is for kids only :DGet more detail about LEGO Creator Stegosaurus.
