LIBRARY OF BIRMINGHAM - go on a creative adventure with your child, enjoy a bit of modelling and role modelling, be a great teammate, have fun and help two curious porcupines Foxe and Troo to rebuild the model of the largest public library in the United Kingdom to their own scale and taste for bright colours! Think like an architect through basic shapes and solids, and make a twin pair of vivid mini paper models.

Dimensions (when assembled) - 3.5 ⋅ 3.5 ⋅ 3.5 inches / 9 ⋅ 9 ⋅ 9 cm

Size of the package - 5.1 ⋅ 4.2 ⋅ 0.2 inches / 13 ⋅ 10.7 ⋅ 0.5 cm

PRINTED KIT - CUT, FOLD, GLUE! You will need to cut, score, fold and glue the parts in order to assemble the models. It's a twin pack - assemble two identical models from the kit.

What's inside? 20 blueprint cards, 2 title cards, 2 porcupine mascot cards, assembling instructions and diagrams are printed on the inside of the cover and show the most important steps in building the model.

The blueprint cards are precisely double side printed:

on the front side - graphics with all the exterior details - like doors, windows, balconies, roofs etc.

on the reverse side - the cutting and folding patterns; this makes the cutting job easier, helps to focus and adds an extra moment for excitement.

There are numbers on both sides of the blueprint cards - they will help to assemble the model, just follow the sequence.

The title card carries a name of the building on one side - use it for standing your finished model on. The reverse side of this card shows a short dialogue between Foxe and Troo - they are discussing fun things about the building they are visiting.

Things which are not included, but you'll need in order to assemble the model: scissors, a pen, a ruler and a glue stick (we recommend a solvent-free green SCOTCH stick).
