Recommended age:    7 year-old ++ 

Who would love this:  Anyone who enjoys woodwork/ craft activities/ 3D puzzles 

We love the build-it-yourself plywood puzzles from Funyards Australia - they are not difficult to execute, and always give us such satisfying sense of achievement. Today, let’s talk about “Wooden 3D Puzzle - Racing Car”. 

Why I love ❤️ this set: 

(1) Laser-Cut Plywood 3D Puzzle With 29 Pieces 

The set comes with a single wooden sheet with removable laser-cut plywood pieces, and a one-page assembly instructions guide. First, gently push out the laser cut wooden pieces (there are a total of 29 individuals pieces) - all can be easily popped out and removed without the need of tool. The illustrated guide has clear step-by-step guide with each of the puzzle pieces labelled for easy reference. To build the race car, simply insert and join the pieces together by following the sequence and guide of the assembly instructions. Starting from the main body of the car and its cockpit, fix the front part and side doors, attach the wheels and rear wing, and finally, gives it a last touch by connecting the steering wheel and front wing. It’s a delightful  process that requires a reasonable measure of dexterity and concentration - it took our 8 year-old 15-minute to complete the build. It was a pleasant, stress-free activity, with no fancy gadgets or tools required. 

(2) Cool Racing Car Design 

I love the design of the puzzle structure. The racing car has sufficient details to make it interesting. Symmetrical on both sides with all pieces securely connected - it doesn’t take up much space, and makes such a gorgeous vehicle to be incorporated into imaginative play. 

(3) Precisely Crafted With Good Connection 

Like all of Funyards Australia timber sets - the puzzle pieces are laser-cut, precisely done with gaps and links for easy insertion/ connection between the pieces. No glue is needed for this project. The set includes a small piece of sand paper to smooth out the edges and wooden surfaces. 

(4) Flat-Pack Packaging + Clearly Illustrated Instruction Guide 

I love that the puzzle is flat-pack with minimal packaging. The instruction is clearly illustrated, all pieces are labeled on the guide and are easily identifiable. Our 8 year-old was able to build it independently and he thoroughly enjoyed the process. According to the information included, this product passed CE and ASTM test.
