This toy has it all! I have to admit it — this toy makes me want to shout “Wow! Neat! Awesome!” And if I were younger, I would definitely add “Cool!” I mean, this toy has everything. Oh, and my son loves it, too! He’s not quite three years old, but he enjoys putting the base together, then placing each colorful gear on the pegs, and then — Fun! — turning and churning them with the handle. Together we’ve made some elaborate structures, and he looks so serious and industrious as he carefully snaps on a gear for each peg. Also, this toy is so open-ended and lets creativity soar! After going to the county fair, my son talked endlessly about the “scary rides,” and this toy helps to fuel his imagination when we create all manner of exotic spinning rides. He surprised me by putting a gear on a connector and presenting the “flower” to me. He’s made a terrific magic wand by stacking the pillars and connectors together, then piling gears atop that and…
Superb! A sure winner I look for toys that are fairly quiet, easy to play with and fun. I want a toy that will inspire creativity and exploration of the world. I look for toys that are sturdy and will last a long time. I look for toys that will grow with my child.This toy fits into all of these expectations and more.My almost three year old son has really enjoyed these gears. He plays with them a lot. We have conversations about how they turn and how they work together. He is able to build a flower on his own and a bridge. I would point out though that he plays with these gears much better when an adult is playing with him. However, these are so fun, it’s not a hardship to sit down and play.We bought one of the activity books and that has helped expand our building activities and our imaginations, as we use the ideas from one activity and apply it to our own personal building.I particularly like that you can buy more pieces in different sizes and uses. What a great way to expand…
Wonderful for kids! 0
