My daughter loved the set because she can create basically anything she wants! She has just started playing lego the past Christmas, after gifted certain Lego sets. She says the instructions are easy to understand, and from there it sets as the foundation for her to creating whatever items she could think of. She actually likes this creative set where the Lego is not fixed to building a certain item. She can break them down and build something else again whenever she feels like. I felt that it is definitely a very good and useful tool for kids to build their imagination, and endless creativity!
