Review: I cannot recommend this product highly enough! :) - I never, ever, ever bother to write these things. But, I am so incredibly impressed with this product, that I feel compelled to. My six year old daughter LOVES IT, as does my almost four year old daughter. The hammer is just the right size, and it comes with enough pre-cut (good quality) wood for many projects. So far, they have made a house, car, and a plane-- all of which are far more aesthetically pleasing (to me, as a mom) than the plethora of junky plastic toys that seem to fill our home. We've used these projects both as math lessons (measuring the wood, counting the nails needed, learning about angles, reviewing shapes) and during arts & crafts time; but, with just a little creativity, they could be incorporated into just about any learning subject. For the amount of enjoyment we have received, thus far, this product is already worth the money spent, and we have several more projects to go! We will be buying another for little sister's upcoming birthday, most definitely. Review: Great kit for any boy or girl wanting to build - I bought this kit for my 8 year olds birthday. He has had a lot of fun putting everything together and only needed my help a couple of time while using the hammer but other than that he was very excited to be able to build the 3 items included in the kit all by himself. If they made different kits with more items to build I would certainly purchase them all. I highly recommend this for any boy or girl that likes to build and put things together. ## Features - Introduce kids to woodworking—with real tools and supplies - Over 80 smooth pine pieces, including a lightweight hammer and nails - Encourages creativity as kids strengthen problem solving and motor skills - For ages 4-11 years ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B009IYD7PO | | Additional Features | Lightweight | | Age Range (Description) | Kid | | Age Range Description | Kid | | Art Craft Kit Type | woodworking kit | | Best Sellers Rank | #90,745 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) #202 in Kids' Wood Craft Kits | | Brand | Lakeshore | | Brand Name | Lakeshore | | Color | Tan | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 304 Reviews | | Included Components | tools | | Item Dimensions | 8.27 x 3.94 x 12.2 inches | | Item Weight | 4.5 Pounds | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 8.27 x 3.94 x 12.2 inches | | Manufacturer | Lakeshore Learning Materials | | Manufacturer Part Number | HH866 | | Material | Pine | | Material Type | Pine | | Model Number | HH866 | | Number of Pieces | 80 | | Product Style | Box | | Seasons | All Seasons | | Set Name | Single Set | | Size | 7 3/4" x 12" | | Subject Character | Woodworking | | Theme | Building | | UPC | 793631937110 633682123394 | | Unit Count | 80.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Kid - **Brand:** Lakeshore - **Color:** Tan - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 8.27 x 3.94 x 12.2 inches - **Theme:** Building ## Images ![Lakeshore Build-It-Yourself Woodworking Kit - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61SRIVrHYPL.jpg) ![Lakeshore Build-It-Yourself Woodworking Kit - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71j0-yFC37L.jpg) ![Lakeshore Build-It-Yourself Woodworking Kit - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61OQl-wU4BL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Why should I pay $73 here when it's $35 on Lakeshore's website?** A: This kit is currently on Amazon for $89.99 + $13.29 shipping, no Prime. I actually took your advice and went to the Lakeshore website. I got two Kits, the Young Woodworker’s Project Kit, AA347 and Build-It-Yourself Woodworking Kit, HH866, for $87.99 DELIVERED to Alaska. Of course I did get a coupon code for Lakeshore for a BOGO 1/2 off which was a savings of $20. I love Amazon but it's not always cheaper. It pays to shop around. **Q: WHAT IS THE CONTENTS** A: This set comes with lots of wood pieces and things to make. It does not come with a complete set of tools.I bought a set of tools in a child's size. These were real tools, but on a smaller scale for kids about 6 to 10 years old.If the child really wants to use tools, then a tool set is a better choice than this set. If the child will be using the set without much adult help, then this set would be easier for the child to use. Hope this helps. **Q: is it real glue hamer nails and mood.** A: It is all real - my 5 year old grandson along with his father, had a great time building the wood train, plane, and bird feeder! **Q: is the booklet with the directions online anywhere?** A: The booklet is not available online. However, please refer to your Amazon Order Confirmation on how to contact us “the seller” and we’ll be happy to send you a soft copy. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I cannot recommend this product highly enough! :) *by E***R on January 27, 2015* I never, ever, ever bother to write these things.

It contains nicely cut and sanded pieces, and the little hammer is great quality! He'll use it for a long time! They immediately tried 2 of the projects, and first found that the instructions were a little vague (so many similar sized/shaped pieces - it was difficult to sort them!). The glue included in the kit had separated, and was not usable - but basic wood glue, which we had on hand, worked just fine. The projects turned out great, and, the time spent working on them was priceless! We would purchase a similar product again. ## Frequently Bought Together - Lakeshore Build-It-Yourself Woodworking Kit - Kraftic Woodworking Building Kit for Kids and Adults, with 6 Educational Arts and Crafts DIY Carpentry Construction Wood Model Kit Toy Projects for Boys and Girls - SparkJump DIY Wood Building Kits, STEM Woodworking Kit for Kids, Creative Fun Craft Projects, Great Gift for Boys & Girls (Candy Dispenser, 1-Pack) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1800355-lakeshore-build-it-yourself-woodworking-kit](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1800355-lakeshore-build-it-yourself-woodworking-kit) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-30*
