Beginner Bot
You can't start 'em too young in the competitive robotics games, we always say. This kit requires no soldering, but the result is a honey of an 8-legged lunar rover, sort of a wireless remote-control arachnid. Includes a pre-wired circuit board for the infrared remote and wiring harnesses for the motors and batteries. The case is translucent red and yellow plastic and the whole robotic shebang will measure 6" x 6" x 5" when finished. Has (8) 4-part articulated legs, and (4) switchable channels, so you can operate your bot with (3) others on the same surface. Includes a good 13pp manual, requires minimal tools for assembly and a total of (4) "AA" and (4) "AAA" batteries, which you supply. The manufacturer doesn't list an appropriate age (other than warning that 3-year-olds can eat the parts) but we think any crafty 9- to 99-year-old could handle the task.

Wood You Believe…
Actual wooden models for kids, nary an ounce of plastic in the bunch. These well-made little kits come with instructions, pre-cut pine pieces, glue, (6) paint pots, a brush, and tiny brad nails (except the tank, which doesn't need them.) The pickup truck will be about 7" long x 2" tall and the wooden tank is 4-1/2" long x 3-1/2" tall. The packages recommend these kits for ages 8 and up, because of the pointy little brad nails, and they're certainly not for kids under 3, what with small parts in general, but they're all dandy little projects for the parents and munchkins to make together of a cold winter's night.

ClayoSaurus Rex
Actually a little clay modeling kit to create a T-Rex at home. Comes with a 7" tall pose-able skeleton, enough green and orange clay to cover it, instructions, and a 14" x 8-1/2" dino poster. Or skip the clay and build a mini-natural history museum around the skeleton, which has a certain goofy charm all by itself.

Includes illustrated instructions. You add a few minimal household objects. (Like water glasses.) For kids 3 and up.
