It also has over 100 stickers and a large fold-out City Map to play with the models on. Kids will have hours of fun playing in the city, and it's a great way for them to experience the tactile joys of paper folding while fueling their imaginations!

"Clearly aimed at younger children, this kit is slightly reminiscent of the 'instant transfer' sets from my youth, you get a foldout street plan to display your models on and a wide range of bright stickers with which to decorate them. The included paper has appropriate imagery on it, so you need to select the proper sheet for each design." —British Origami Society magazine
