- DOES NOT CONTAIN 16" x 16" BASE PLATES
- I bought this item first and foremost because the item description said it contained 16" by 16" base plates. It does not. (I should have figured out that they wouldn't have fit into the box it says it ships in.)
The base plates are very small. They are 16 lego dots by 16 lego dots, which is 5" square. Bummer.
It's a great toy, but yes, as other reviews have said, they should have created a base that wouldn't slide around when placed over the mosaic guide. I end up holding it THE ENTIRE TIME my children play with it. Definitely more hands-on than I would like!
I still give it high ratings because it is fun and keeps my kids engaged. - 2008-09-29, 0 of 1 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Fun for my 4 year old
- This is a fun and educational toy for my 4 year old. This what I saw with her playing with it:
1. She learned to following simple instructions from a manual.
2. She picked up more motor skill on handling the little pieces.
3. She learned faster pattern matching techniques.
The only negative thing I would say about this product is that it does not give you enough pieces to complete two art works (illustrated in the manual). If you finished one, you may have to take pieces from it to complete the second one. - 2008-08-25, 1 of 1 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Educational
- I am always looking for great toys and I would rate this as good. My four year old really enjoys the whole concept of creating and accomplishing each piece. It is very colourful and durable. You can be as creative as you want to be. The pieces stay in place as she proudly displays them. The reason why I gave this only four stars is that to push the pieces securely on the board can be painful to little fingers.

- Mosaic Lego
- Great lego set. My only suggestion would be to tape the card to the plastic lego board so that it doesn't move. My 5 year old became a bit frustrated when it slid around - but overall a fun project!

- Great for little Lego-lovers with an artistic side!
- I purchased this set as a gift for my 6-year old niece. She's just started to move from Duplos, designed more for toddlers, to "real" Legos. She also loves to draw, and I thought this set would allow her to show that artistic side with Legos instead of crayons or markers. It looks like I guessed well, because she took to this set right away, immediately testing out several of the more simple designs (eg, the heart), and gradually working her way up to the slightly more complex ones. Her 4-year old sister joined in on the fun too, as the included patterns appeal to a range of ages. As other reviewers have already mentioned, it would've been nice to have a way to attach the base to the design and/or to have included additional designs, especially for the price, but overall, this is a creative, enjoyable toy that I would definitely recommend.
