This beautifully detailed model is fun to build and will give your little one lots of fun and a great sense of achievement. Great for parent and child to work on together, this is going to be a blast to work on.
Acrylic, gouache, watercolor, markers - you can use whatever you have. You can color the model by doing yourself, with friends or the whole family. Delicate contour lines on wooden parts depict details of the attraction - horse, bear and elephant, to make it easy to paint.
In the 16th century “carousel” / “Merry Go Round” was originally the name of an event for the nobility, which replaced joisting and included a "horse ballet" and costume riders and horses. In the 18th century French engineers have evolved the idea of a mechanical carousel with a rotating circular platform, with wooden horses mounted on it.
The figures of horse, bear and elephant are set on the rotating round platform in the 3D coloring model «Merry Go Round». You can roll your favorite toy or twist a carousel in your hands and find out how it is arranged and how it works. A Merry Go Round is rotated about vertical axis and evidently shows the principle of work of the roller bearing. Assembles easily and is fun to play with.
The model develops engineering skills, spatial thinking and fine motor skills. It captures the imagination of children for a long time.
All parts are already cut off and can be easily removed from the board. The model is assembled like a puzzle without glue and special tools by following an illustrated colored manual and is fun to play with. While children are collecting some blocks, the adults can suggest their help: the parts are cut off precisely; you only need to insert the component pins, pressing them with your fingers. But if the fingers are too small, kids may need some help.
