Like all good toys, the brand new Building Cards will need no introduction to its intended audience. Once kids get their hands on these decks, they know just what to do. But for the rest of you... Building Card Castles comes with a deck of 58 beautifully illustrated laminated chipboard leaves, perforated to break into more than 150 cards in four different shapes. Every card is notched to fit neatly and securely with every other card. Assemble the cards any way you want to create freestanding fantasy fortresses. The book gives specific guidelines for creating magnificent castles with walls, floors, roofs, towers, spires, bridges and other architectural elements, along with inspirational photos of some of the zillion variations possible. Altogether, there are enough cards in one deck to build a small village or one satisfyingly towering castle big enough to cover a school desk. And since every castle needs a keeper, we've included a nicely painted, custom-molded knight. He's plastic, but very gallant. Comes with: 150 building cards and hand-painted knight figurine.
