what parents are saying
My 4 and 2 years both love this set! I was worried my 2 year old would be too young but he does great with it (supervised, of course). The plastic tub is a huge plus as it keeps everything together. (Oct 17, 2017)

This is a fun set- LOTS of tiny pieces. My son needs supervision and guidance for this toy (he’s 3), so it only gets used from time to time. I’m hoping he’ll be able to use it more creatively soon. Jan 01, 2020

Fun to play with as an adult but I think is not for kids between 3-5 is more for older kids its kind of difficult to make the connections, thats why my 5 year old didnt like it, he is in the spectrum. Oct 09, 2017

My three year old loves this set. One thing to keep in mind is the choking hazard if you have smaller kids. Keep in a safe place or take out the small pieces/save for little one's naptime to play! Oct 04, 2017
- Sabina K.

My daughter loved these. Got her thinking very differently about building. The eyes are so cute and the pieces feel like a nice quality. I will say though the pieces are very small- not for littles Oct 01, 2017
