This is a great product. My 8 year old niece loved it, especially because she got to keep the pyramid almost intact. We only needed to get the top part off to get to the goodies inside. She also enjoyed deciphering the hierogliphs to open the pyramid. Make sure you do this one outside, there is sand inside. The booklet is also great. She got to read about the artifacts discovered.
