Recommended for children ages 3 and up, my kids (4 and 7 years old) have thoroughly enjoyed playing with it (and I like it better than the
Nativity set previously reviewed.)
The Noah’s Ark set from one2believe includes an ark, Noah, and 14 animals. Animals include a male and female of the following: ostriches, elephants, lions, donkeys, camels, monkeys and sheep. The animals are sturdy enough for children to play with and should bring many hours of fun. The ark has only one window, which makes me happy (since the Bible says it had only one window) and it also floats. I don’t know that it is intended to float, but it does. It also a decent size, all the animals can be stored inside.
What I like:
Kid sized, fun, Bible focused play. This Noah’s ark would be a great quiet activity for a little one. However, with 14 animals included, more than one child can play.
What I don’t like:
Had a little struggle getting the top of the ark to come off. I’m not sure how sturdy that actual ark is. I thought it may crack, but it hasn’t yet, and my kids have played with it plenty.
Noah’s wife, and the sons and their wives are not included, although I’ve never seen an ark that does. It’s important that children know the full story. I would not say this is a reason to dismiss the product, just one to be aware of.
