Excavate 17 pieces. Assemble one flying reptile display.
Chip through the rectangular block, recover the numbered skeleton parts, and assemble them on the supplied display base. A hammer, chisel, brush, and fold-out instruction sheet are included.
One project from start to finish
Dig the parts, follow the numbered guide, and keep the assembled model.
The activity moves through three clear stages: excavate every hidden piece, clean the connection points, and use the instruction sheet to assemble the skeleton on its base.
Kit contents
Everything listed in the product image.
The supplied tools cover excavation and cleaning. The skeleton parts and display base are recovered from the block and assembled with the fold-out guide.
The 17 numbered skeleton parts and display components are embedded inside.
Use light taps to break down the excavation material.
Scrape around each exposed part with controlled pressure.
Clear loose material before removing or joining a piece.
The fold-out sheet supports assembly and introduces visible Pterosaur features.
Excavation stage
Work gradually around each hidden piece.
The model is divided into small parts. Slower digging near an exposed edge helps keep the connection points clear for the assembly stage.
Place the block on a tray, paper, or another surface that contains loose excavation material.
Use the hammer and chisel a little at a time instead of breaking the block apart at once.
When a pale model piece appears, remove the surrounding material in short, controlled movements.
Clear the holes, pins, and joining edges before following the numbered assembly guide.
Assembly stage
Seventeen numbered parts become one display model.
The product image shows each component separately and numbers them from 1 to 17. Match those numbers to the instruction sheet, join the sections in sequence, and finish with the supplied base.
Lay out the cleaned parts and confirm that every numbered component has been recovered.
Compare paired wing and limb sections before pressing the connectors together.
Use the printed numbering instead of forcing pieces that do not align.
The assembled model is supported on the included display base.
Use the fold-out sheet
Assembly support and labelled features in one guide.
The included sheet shows the model activity and points out visible features of the illustrated flying reptile. Keep it beside the parts during assembly, then use it with the finished display.
Compare the neck section with the printed illustration.
Use the head silhouette to orient the skull correctly.
Check the wing and hand sections before joining the paired parts.
Match the completed skull with the labelled illustration.
After the excavation
The activity continues after the block is gone.
Once the skeleton is assembled, children can compare it with the guide, point out the labelled features, and keep the model on its base.
Excavation, cleaning, sorting, and assembly are completed as connected tasks.
The fold-out sheet gives children a visual reference for the finished model.
The supplied base keeps the completed skeleton upright after assembly.
The block, model, tools, and guide are packed together in one retail box.
Before children begin
Follow the age label and keep the small parts contained.
The age marking appears on both the retail packaging and the product record.
The package states: choking hazard—small parts. Not for children under 3 years.
A tray or covered table keeps loose excavation material and recovered pieces together.
Adult help is useful for tool control, finding all 17 parts, and checking connections.
Clean the joining points and recheck the instruction sheet if two parts do not align.
Packaging update
The box design may vary; the product inside is identical.
Orders may be shipped with either the new or old package design. The contents are the same in both versions, and a specific package version cannot be requested.
The package version is selected at random during fulfilment.
The excavation block, 17-part model, tools, base, and instruction sheet do not change with the box design.
