Description

With this remarkable kit, young history buffs cross the drawbridge and go behind the stone walls of a medieval castle. The clever outer case opens to reveal a realistic 3-D castle where children serve as a page, train to be a squire, and recreate scenes right out of history -- a bloody siege, a magnificent banquet, a thrilling jousting tournament, and even a prisoner's trial. This fun and educational kit comes with everything needed to build models and stage scenes, including instructions, two collectible figures, over 50 press-out models, and an illustrated 24-page book with a captivating historical narrative.
