With this kit, children use match-like pieces called microbeams to build intricate constructions.

TDmonthly Review:

Matchitecture by Jouets BJ Toys (ToyDirectory, ToyShow) comes with 500 wooden match sticks (minus the head), a “Microbeam Cutter” for cutting the sticks to size, and wood glue and tweezers for handling the construction.

Also included are detailed instructions for building the construction excavator on the box cover. This kit would be great for a Tween with patience (if there is such a thing) who’s still too young to get into shop class.
