Ultimate Play Set: Large Indoor Scene, 15 Charming Characters, Stable, Trees - Perfect Christmas Decor & Memorable Stocking Stuffer

I enjoy assembling block sets and thought this one was a special find for Christmas. The blocks are about the size of standard Legos and connect together easily The set came with an instruction booklet with illustrations on what blocks are needed and how to fit them together for each layer. The booklet shows that the animals require assembly but mine arrived already assembled. I have assembled many block sets, including Legos and Nanoblocks with thousands of pieces so this set was not particularly challenging. I knew it only had 315 pieces so was not expecting a challenge - just something fun and cute to display for Christmas. It met my expectations.As I put together my set, I noticed a piece was missing. Since I didn't count the pieces to verify I had them all before I started assembly, I thought I might have knocked it on the floor. I assembled the rest of the pieces then checked around on the floor and swept a couple times in case it had fallen. Since it was a larger piece, it seemed like it would have been easy to find if I had dropped it.I contacted Nativity Bricks by email, explained I couldn't find the piece but hadn't counted the pieces so couldn't verify whether if was missing prior to shipment or if I had lost it. I received a reply within a few minutes offering to send a replacement piece. Amazing customer service!!! I received the replacement piece within a couple of days along with a Moses figure.Overall, a nice set and priced about the same as a Lego set with similar quantity of pieces. If Nativity Bricks had other sets, I would buy from them again.

I am so happy with this little nativity set! The design is intricate and beautiful, yet fairly easy to follow the instructions step by step (our kids definitely needed help though!) Love that the animals heads are able to move when it’s assembled. We took out the people and animals ahead of time and are putting them in our kids’ advent calendar drawers so they are not pictured.

Having spend thousand of dollars on Legos over the years I feel I'm and expert when it comes to putting bricks together. The bricks in this set are high quality, they snap together easily and stay snapped together. The instruction were clear enough that my kids (age 6 and 8) had no problem putting the set together. The figurines have good detail and the arms and legs have more movement that comparable figurine (i.e. they can do the splits, etc.). What I love most is that it is a fun interactive set that we can display in the house to help to remind the family of the true meaning of Christmas.

Great addition to winter sets

This set was difficult to assemble. So many pieces packed in various sealed bags that were not packed with any thought as to what parts worked together for different sections of the Nativity. What confusion and then organization that was required to begin. It took a lot of time to assemble but was well worth it. My grandson, just turned 5, and I worked for two straight hours on the first afternoon when we started. Amazing to capture the focus of a lively five year old for such a long time. With each visit we continued to enthusiastically continue until completion. Great purchase. I would definitely gift this to a child but give it well ahead of Christmas day.

My 6 year old grandson and I assembled this nativity! It came with all the pieces and very good instructions. The assembly was enjoyable and a bit challenging For him as it was for 9+! It was a fun way to talk about Jesus’ birth and the events surrounding it! The people and animals are so cute! Loved them all! I highly recommend this product!

I love building different Lego buildings and this year decided to dedicate one table to Holiday Building Block items. I thought this would be perfect and happily admit that it is cute, but it is not easy to put together. And that's saying something since my normal builds are 700+ pieces. The first problem is the piece snapability. These blocks do not want to always connect to others within the set, so you spend a lot of time pressing these together and hurting your fingers. The other hard part is the bodies of the people. They are not put together, so you're going to be snapping together a lot of little hands, arms, and legs. For this - you're going to want to have a flat, well lit work area in case you drop anything, and a thimble to protect your fingers.

Brick sets are always a Christmas request from our kids. This year we wanted to find something that would help our kids understand the real meaning of Christmas while building their brick creations. This Nativity set was FANTASTIC! The bricks are excellent quality, and and completely compatible with other bricks. It is already packed away for us to pull out and assemble again next Christmas. What a fun tradition! In the instructions they have printed the Christmas Story, so you can read it while you are building. I don't want to spoil the awesome surprise on the final instruction page, but wow, what an AWESOME company, with such a personal commitment to each customer.
