In a word, the 3D Home Kit is MARVELOUS!
In this age of technology, it is super satisfying to use cleverly designed, simple materials to create amazing structures. Use this product (or the related 2D Quick Planner, which we also love) to design an actual project - but you don’t need a practical reason to create a whimsical room or dream home. You can play to your heart’s content! In a two-week workshop, many of our students independently designed amazing dream homes with encouragement, but little direction. Students were so satisfied!

It's the journey that counts
I purchased this kit for my 12 year-old nephew who is interested in architecture and loves building things. He needed some assistance to get started. We first viewed a few online videos about the 3-D Home Kit, and then decided to build the “basic model” with help from an instructional video that explained everything we had to do step-by-step. To build a basic model with the 3-D Home Kit, you only need to know how to cut, tape, and perform simple math. The “basic model” looks great and building it was a fantastic way to get familiar with the kit and gain confidence using it. We also found the suggested designs on the worksheet helpful for inspiration. Through trial and error, my nephew designed and built his own dream home model with the kit. The kit promotes hands-on and problem-solving skills and creative thinking. It is a lot of work but my nephew created realistic-looking models that he is very proud of.

No actual plans for roofs or house types included
The instructions were either not relevant to the needs or extremely confusing. I didn't know a lot of the words. Still, the basic things they should have had such as possible blueprints for making a few houses were simply not there. Rather, they let you fiddle around and try it. In that case, the kit itself is not necessary, only use paper! There is no way I could create the house on that picture! Even as an adult!

Great Project for Older Children
I purchased this as a Christmas Gift for my 9 year old grandson. He wants to build houses for under privileged family. At 9 years young - I may have over taxed his skill set. This kits is fairly complex. We decided to "put it up" for a year or so.

Terrible Product for Kids
This should not be marketed for kids. It is a kit for professional architects. It is basically just a stack of cardstock paper, most of which just has a plain grid on it. Nothing is cut out, there is no design or pattern to follow and no instruction on how to actually put something together with it. My 13-year old daughter was extremely disappointed when she opened this up and saw what it actually was.
