Educators and health experts agree that early childhood reading is essential to brain development. When parents read to their young children on a daily basis, they can introduce them to up to 250,000 words before they enter Kindergarten, preparing them for academic success and better overall outcomes in terms of literacy and cognition. Beyond these benefits, reading aloud to a child creates a bonding experience that can last a lifetime. <h3>About the Publisher</h3> For nearly 20 years,&nbsp;Silver Dolphin Books&nbsp;has published award-winning activity, novelty, and educational nonfiction books for preschoolers to 12-year-olds.

This kit was slightly disappointing.  Out of three robots, only one works well. One needs assistance to wiggle due to poor design, and the third robot cannot be assembled because our kit contained the wrong motor. There should be two motors "B" and one "A," but our kit contained three type "B" motors.  

This wasn't a total loss because the information contained in the book was interesting, and the stylized illustrations caught my attention.

Poorly designed and missing parts

Some of the slots are not big enough to put together and some slots are too big when trying to get it to stay together. The wind up part that moves the arms won't stay in place.good idea but needs better design for stability of the robot.

good idea needs better design

All the robots motors do not work and the robots fall apart super easy. Do not recommend at all.

Terrible
