Have a drill handy to pre drill the holes before the kids nail the house together. It will make it a lot easier. And I would advise getting a few extra nails too, as the kit comes with exactly what you need. We had a fair amount that bent the nails. This project was done with a group of Girl Scouts, grades 4 thru 8.

These kits are often made...
These kits are often made by children. I used them for VBS kids in 4th thru 6th grade. Several girls were new to hammering nails. The nails could be thicker, since the wood is thick, and the nails need a head on them, not rounded as are finishing nails. The nails bent too easily, and they were a little difficult to hold while hammering. The wood and design were great.

      BUTTERFLIES DO NOT USE HOUSES. Don't waste your money. The project appears simple enough, and it would be fun to build something with my daughter, but this structure will only encourage Wasps, Ants, and Spiders to move in -- you will not be raising any butterflies. Please research this topic, and you will save yourself $10 on this kit. Here is a link to a DNR article: http://www.georgiawildlife.com/node/3461

          Best house on the block!
          Extremely easy to assemble and even more fun to decorate. I was delighted to see that this product existed and it is a wonderful addition to the milkweed garden!

          Butterfly houses don't work
          If you are looking for a project for kids this is a good one, if you think you will be saving butterflies, you're mistaken. Butterflies don't use homes like thins however you will find that wasps love them!!!!

            Butterfly house
            I bought this as a Christmas gift for my grandson who is 6. He needed help but it was a fun project for him to do. I recommend it highly.
