Editor's Pick: Kids are naturally drawn to construction vehicles. This loader-excavator set has only 104 pieces, but the bucket can be raised and lowered using a knob, and the rear digging arm and support legs are fully movable. Kids around age 7 can follow the instructions to build it on their own, picking up basic mechanical principles while playing. It's a great choice for a birthday gift or a small reward, and once built, they can use it to simulate digging and loading at a construction site.
