Basic Fun K'NEX , Ultimate Building Set 35 Model , Educational Toys for Kids, 480 Piece Engineering and Construction STEM Learning Kit for Children Ages 7+, (Packaging may vary)

I purchased this set for my 7 year old son who is a big lover of lego. We wanted to get him something similar but a little more complicated that involved a little more thought to challenge him a bit and to make building models a little more interesting than the usual lego structures we often see him building. I was a fan of K'Nex as a kid because they are so versatile, where much of lego is bricks, k'nex is multifunctional and one piece could be used to be an edge of a structure, a base, a piece of something that is a moving part etc etc. I have always loved Lego as well, but personally feel that lego is great for intricate model building and K'nex is better for thinking of the "skeleton" of a structure. There are 35 models that this set is ideal for ranging from the outline of an icecream cone more complicated planes, cranes, dinosaurs etc. The one thing to note about K'nex if you've never used them is that in the instructions - where lego would be really detailed about how to put a model together, most K'nex models are a page or two at the most at this size and show a short of exploded view of a piece coming together. The box is a little big for what is inside of it, but I think if you have a lot of K'nex, it works well as a storage box for it as it is quite large (in my opinion, for this set alone I think it should be a quarter of the size it is, but it is a very robust box and works well for storage.The 480 pieces mean that although there are 35 models you can build, it also allows for some imagination and has a great variety of pieces to account for freestyle model building. I purchased this at around 13.00GBP and was very happy with it at that price. I would buy again and would recommend to someone looking for a gift for someone who is a lover of k'nex or even a lover of lego! Great quality - highly recommended

Great toy for kids younger or old kids

Lots of great models to build, providing endless fun.

Good for kids and adults that are used to building as 13 year old finds it quite complex

Great toy my son loves this toy build

Bought for my grandson. He loves it.

Brought this for my 6 yr old grandson who’s had hours of play making its models . Great for using the imagination . I was so impressed that I purchased another set with different models . Worth the price for hours of play .

My son had this when he was little.Purchased for my Grandson quality is just as good. You will not be disappointed.Makes a nice change from lego.

My son got this for Xmas and could not even build a single one of the models as too many parts were missing (about 40!! Pieces) Very disappointing

The product was delivered good and safe. But the pieces in this product was too small and I can't use as I wish. In this product there are two size pieces and you can't play or design as you wish. Its very complicated to use. Better try with K'nex 70 Model building set as it was good to play with.

As a parent looking for educational and engaging toys for my child, I recently purchased the K’NEX 35 Model Building Set, and I must say, it's been a fantastic addition to our collection. Here's why I believe it's a great construction education toy: Versatile Building Options: With 480 colorful pieces, the K’NEX set offers endless possibilities for creativity and imagination. From simple structures to intricate models, children have the freedom to explore and build a wide variety of designs, fostering their problem-solving skills and spatial awareness in the process. STEM Learning: As a construction education toy, K’NEX encourages hands-on learning in the areas of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Through building and experimenting with different configurations, children develop critical thinking skills and gain practical insights into concepts such as physics, geometry, and mechanics. Step-by-Step Instructions: The set includes step-by-step instructions for building 35 different models, ranging from vehicles and animals to buildings and more. These instructions provide clear guidance and inspiration for children to follow while also allowing room for customization and personalization based on their interests and preferences. Durable and High-Quality: The K’NEX pieces are made of durable plastic that can withstand hours of play and manipulation. The interlocking connectors and rods are sturdy and secure, ensuring that children's creations stay intact during playtime and exploration. Age-Appropriate Design: Designed for ages 7 and up, the K’NEX set strikes the perfect balance between complexity and accessibility. The pieces are sized appropriately for young hands to manipulate and assemble, promoting fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination in younger children while offering older children a more challenging building experience. Interactive and Collaborative: Building with K’NEX encourages social interaction and collaboration among children as they work together to problem-solve, share ideas, and bring their creations to life. It's a wonderful opportunity for siblings, friends, or classmates to bond and learn together in a fun and engaging way. Overall, I highly recommend the K’NEX 35 Model Building Set to parents and educators looking for a construction education toy that promotes creativity, STEM learning, and hands-on exploration. With its versatile building options, durable design, and age-appropriate features, it's sure to inspire hours of imaginative play and discovery for children of all ages.

Tolles, vielseitiges Spielzeug. Regt die Fantasie an.

Bellissimi, tantissimi modelli da costruire con pochi euro, li ho scoperti da poco e subito acquistati per i bimbi, si divertono e trascorrono parecchio tempo a costruire. Una altra concezione del costruire. Li consiglio e penso che ne prenderò altri set.
