Do you have a preschool age child on your Christmas list this year?
Your own son or daughter…or perhaps a niece of nephew?
I have a fun recommendation for you!
The kids and I were given the opportunity to review this adorable Sesame Street K’NEX set provided to us from Child’s Play Communications & K’NEX.
All three kids were very excited to when the package was delivered to our doorstep. Abby (6), Emmy (4), & Micah (2) quickly began to play with it and fight share with each other!
They have enjoyed making their own little creations out of the pieces as well as following the directions on the enclosed activity sheet. Emmy has spent hours playing with it! Now that’s what I call a good toy!
Let me make it really easy for you…
The Pros According To Mandy:
- Easy to play with and put together for older preschoolers.
- Bright colors catch kids attention…and make parts stand out for Mom’s on the hunt for that missing piece!
- Cute familiar characters with parts that you can interchange to make them look like they are wearing clothes! Too cute!
- Good quality and durability…no breaking here!
- No little pesky pieces that Mom’s hate! They are all good size for chubby little hands.
- Very reasonable prices.
- Encourages both creativity and direction following.
- Comes with an activity sheet for us Mom’s to use on those brain fried days when we still want to do something with our kids so they don’t become brain fried from watching too much t.v.!
- The sets are designed to coordinate to make many play options available for both kids,…and *ahem*, parents to use with their imagination!
The Cons According To Mandy:
- The age of 2 is probably a little young for this depending on their abilities. I would recommend it for 3 to 4 year olds.
Go to K’NEX.com to see the great prices and all of the fun sets available!
And for the months of November and December, K’NEX is donating 10% of their online sales to the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. Plus they are giving free shipping on orders of $100 or more…so you can do some big time shopping from the comfort of your own home for all the kids on your list!
K’NEX is also hosting a video contest which you can read all about right here.
