First paper models for a 6 year old?
I'm looking for simple models preferably of London landmarks. For my daughters to have a go. My girls ages are nearly seven and five and a half years.
The five year old has the most patience of the two and is good with appropriate scissors. I don't want anything to involved, simple and reasonably effective when finished. Some play value when complete would be good.

Take a look at Paper London
I am linking the US version of Amazon, but you should be able to find it over on your side of the pond, https://smile.amazon.com/Paper-Londo.../dp/1782402594 20 models depicting various London landmarks and iconic vehicles, all designed by a fellow member Kell Black

Google image search [London Papercraft models] This throws up quite a few simple ones. Just click on a picture then select 'Visit site'. Mostly that will get you to where the download is offered. Word of warning ... Using the word model in a Google image search will also bring up a different type of 'mode'l that you may prefer your youngsters not to see.

Thank you all. There's some interesting possibilities I'll let the tread run a bit longer to see what else turns up then show the girls a short list.
