******************************************
IT'S A KIDS' ZONE!
******************************************
Foxetroo models are designed so that kids need to make simple three-dimensional solids (such as cubes or cylinders) first and then connect them into a final model. Together with the graphics this will then resemble a recognizable architectural building. It's made easy for kids to assemble while developing their cognitive and motoric skills.
******************************************
IT STARTS WITH A PACKAGE
******************************************
All the parts needed to make the particular building are housed inside a convenient pocket size kit. Assembling instructions and diagrams printed on the inside of the cover show the most important steps in building the model.
******************************************
INSIDE THE KIT
******************************************
Foxetroo kits contain two sets of cards – assemble both models yourself or invite someone to help you. We call them cards due to their appealing rounded corners which resemble playing cards.
******************************************
THE CUT-OUT CARDS
******************************************
Each set contains the blueprint cards. The size of the cards is perfect for cutting out the parts of the model. The cards are printed on carefully chosen paper selected to make it simple to cut and fold, so a six year old can achieve it while still ensuring the assembled models look sturdy.
The blueprint cards have two sides that are aligned very precisely:
1 - on the front side you will find graphics of all the exterior details - like doors, windows, balconies, roofs etc.
2 - on the reverse sides of the cards the cutting and folding patterns are printed.
As the graphics and the cutting pattern are printed on two different sides, it makes it easy to focus on cutting the parts out smoothly and precisely, as well as following the guidelines to assemble the model correctly. The main bonus with our design is the lack of written guidelines on display on your finished masterpiece, as they are on the reverse of the cards.
Numbers on both sides of the blueprint cards ease the assembling of the model - just follow the sequence.
******************************************
GAME OF COLOURS
******************************************
Cartoon-like freehand graphics and a playful palette of vibrant colours make the buildings appear alive. Black borders define the edges, sometimes they make an illusory appearance of the shapes. Grey's role is simple yet important - it shows you where the glue should be applied.
******************************************
THE FINE PRINT IS FINE, TOO
******************************************
No fancy tools are needed - just scissors, a pen, a ruler and a glue stick (we recommend a solvent-free green SCOTCH stick).
All the parts of the kit, including the package, are made from materials that are safe for children, non-toxic, environment friendly and conform to EN71, ASTM F963 and CPSIA 2008 safety requirements.
We recommend the kits for anyone aged 6 to 99. Please be aware that the kit is not suitable for children under 6 years! The assistance of an adult may be advisable for 6-10 year olds.
