This was my best Christmas gift to the kids in a while
Bridge or Bust - The Ultimate Bridge-Building Adventure
We got this for our son for Christmas. He LOVES it, he's 10. Not only does he, but my husband as well. They sat down on Christmas and almost did half the book in one sitting. They were at it for hours. They only stopped because my husband's back started to hurt.
I love it because I can see him and his sister using their brains to make the bridge work. I love seeing them solve the problem and work them out. It's a great!
Cleverly built up. Attracts attention from a 7 year old as well as 12 year old. Father included, of course. Some side quests can even take hours to perfect, if you are not prepared to take 'average' as an answer and want the absolute best.
Our kids (10 & almost 8) received this for Christmas and it has been a continuous hit. Took about an hour for all 4 of us to put all the pieces together but then it’s just explore and play. Wonderful company/customer service to deal with. Would highly recommend and come back for their other options in the future!
