Review on Dig Up A Mammoth Excavation Kit By 4M by Elizabeth Oliva

We bought 2 kits for our 4 year old for Christmas. This one and the one made by the Smithsonian (T-rex). Both of the kits have the same concept- chip bones out of plaster like "rock". He LOVED these. They made a freaking horrible mess that took days to finally get all cleaned, but that is a price you pay for your child's happiness! When it comes to buying these again, I will buy the 4M Mammoth Excavation Kit over and over again. NOT THE Smithsonian one! This mammoth was made of slightly rubbery bones that snapped together and STAYED TOGETHER. It can be positioned and played with without falling apart. The T-rex from the Smithsonian kit was crappy plastic molds that didn't fit together well and if you happened to look at it wrong, it all fell apart. I ended up using super glue and putting it on the shelf. my kids are STILL playing with the mammoth weeks later and nothing has fallen off! You can't beat $10 for hours of entertainment!
