These items are much smaller than I thought.The items were fine for sand building but I misunderstood the size. Already have this, wanted snow block making. My mistake, not yours.I like the variety of the tools.Very smallThe block was much smaller than I was expecting.Nice for children to use in snow or sandMy grandson was out playing with snow toys this weekend and had a ball.I purchased this for our sons friends birthday. It was almost as big as my hand. Maybe it was just right for a 5 year old but I was thinking it was going to be much larger.
