1. Product Overview
The 12-in-1 Dinosaur Skeleton Building Set offers an engaging and educational experience for children and adults alike. This set includes 12 individual dinosaur skeleton models, each contained within a surprise egg. These individual models can also be combined to form one larger dinosaur skeleton.
Each surprise egg contains pieces to build a unique dinosaur, such as a Mammoth, Triceratops, Macrospinosaurus, Pterosaur, Stego, Double-Crowned Dragon, Tanychosaurus, Raptors, Brontosaurus, Archaeopteryx, Mosasaurus, and Ankylosaurus.
2. Setup and Assembly
Follow these steps to assemble your dinosaur skeleton models:
- Unpack the Set: Carefully open the product packaging. You will find 12 individual surprise eggs.
- Open a Surprise Egg: Select one egg. Gently open it to reveal the building block pieces and a small instruction sheet for that specific dinosaur model.
- Identify Pieces: Lay out all the pieces from the egg. Refer to the included instruction sheet to identify each component.
- Follow Instructions: Use the step-by-step diagrams on the instruction sheet to connect the building blocks. Ensure pieces are firmly pressed together.
Repeat these steps for each of the 12 surprise eggs to build all individual dinosaur skeletons.
Combining into a Large Dinosaur
Once all 12 individual dinosaur skeletons are assembled, you can combine them to create one larger, impressive dinosaur skeleton. Refer to the main instruction manual (if provided separately) or the product packaging for diagrams on how to connect the smaller models to form the larger one.
3. Operating and Play
These building blocks are designed for creative play and educational exploration:
- Individual Play: Each mini dinosaur can be played with individually, encouraging imaginative scenarios and storytelling.
- Combined Display: Once the large dinosaur is assembled, it makes for an impressive display piece.
- Educational Value: The set promotes STEM learning by stimulating creativity, imagination, and hands-on problem-solving skills during assembly.
- Portability: The individual eggs make it convenient to carry a single dinosaur for playtime at school, home, or parties.
4. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and cleanliness of your building set:
- Cleaning: Wipe the building blocks with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the plastic.
- Storage: Store the building blocks and assembled models in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration or warping. Keeping the pieces in their original eggs or a designated container can help prevent loss.
- Handling: While durable, avoid excessive force when assembling or disassembling to prevent breakage of small parts.
5. Troubleshooting
- Missing Pieces: If you find any pieces missing after receiving your set, please contact the seller for assistance. They will arrange to send you the missing parts.
- Difficulty Assembling: If you encounter difficulty assembling a specific model, double-check the instruction sheet for that dinosaur. Ensure you are using the correct pieces and applying gentle, firm pressure. Sometimes, rotating a piece can help it fit correctly.
- Loose Connections: If parts feel loose, ensure they are fully pushed together. The blocks are designed for a snug, self-locking fit.
