(Make This Viking Settlement) By Iain Ashman (Author) Paperback on (May , 2009)

As a 73 years young disabled man with hand and finger problems I found this model quite brilliant. It was totally absorbing and had me thinking about how these people lived a thousand years ago. I would stress however that it was far from easy andwill really stretch the ability of younger children (under 12 years). I have two more of these Usborne models in progress andI will give them to a local junior school on completion for I cannot think of a better way of getting the kids interested inhistory. The biggest bonus for me is that making these models beats the hell out of the electric shock treatment that I hatedhaving and produces much more relief.

This Viking cut-out models book very good for kid to leaning about Viking history . Normoly kid lean history they will feel boring , but that book they can make their Viking village ,and also they can lean viking's houses , people's work , extra............

Very good for my grandson to do with a little help. He was very pleased with it

The book is amazingly accurate in detail and will be fun to make

My 9 year old daughter loved making this for a school project. It did take probably 20 or more hours over a couple of weeks and she needed adult help with some of the more tricky bits, but all good fun and she was extremely proud of the result. A great piece of kit at a very reasonable price. We will definitely look at buying another.

Perfect for a school project. Bits are small to cut out and you will need small pointy scissors to get in the tiny gaps.

Too difficult to.put together gave up

Well thought out and produced. Good strong card, colourfully printed. Ideal for amusement on wet days

For a study of the Viking culture, this is a great extension for the classroom. Work on it in teams or allow students to work individually. Vivid colors and specific directions for using math, comprehension, and collaboration and the paper is a firm, heavy-weight paper that will hold up under construction. I have three classes working on two different villages.

Ottimo

J'ai été trompée par le fait qu'il s'agissait d'un produit Ushborne, qui en général d'adresse à des enfants plus jeunes. La maquette est très bien mais impossible à réaliser pour un enfant de moins de 10 ans : découpage compliqué et précis entre autres.

super fun to make! it has some tricky bits but most of it is on the easy side.

Wie alle Cut-out-Models einzigartig und großartig. Fingerfertigkeit ist schon gefragt, aber ab Vorschulklasse gut machbar. Der Text in Englisch muss natürlich von den Eltern übersetzt werden. Ein Familienspaß für die, die so etwas gerne zusammen basteln und dann bespielen.
