The Timberkits xylophone player kit comes in a self-assembly pack. The figure and workings can be built by following the instructions enclosed and pegging and gluing parts supplied together. Once assembled correctly, a handle can be turned which drives a system of cams and levers, and the xylophone player ‘plays’ the xylophone.
The xylophone player kit contains wooden components, PVA glue, sandpaper, parts list and comprehensive instructions. Although described as suitable for age 9 to 90 this is a challenging mechanical kit to assemble and the assistance of an adult may be advisable. Indeed, adults may well enjoy assembling this kit too!
Not suitable for children 3 years and under due to small parts.
