Mother of three
Admittedly, I would have never bought this toy for my kids, but my 5 year old son received it as a Christmas present and I am astonished that he and his 3 year old brother, AND 8 year old sister actually play with this thing.They look at the pictures and try and make the same figure, and they all three sit and do it together.It also teaches them creativity.It is hilarious what they can come up with.I want to buy another one so each of my sons will have one.It comes in a small case to keep all the pieces together, and to my suprise they haven't lost any yet.I love this thing.My son has a birthday party to attend next week, and I think I will get this as his gift.I hope they come out with even more sets!

Awesome toy for 3-7 year old boys
After having bought other building sets, such as, Lincoln logs, Tinker toys and Legos, that didn't get a lot of play time, I thought I would try this Knex set for Christmas for my four year old.Although this wasn't the first toy he wanted to open, once he did open it and began to play with it, this is the one he cannot put down.Both he and his seven year old brother love playing with it.The seven year old has no problems building the models that are illustrated in the instruction booklet.There are no words, just pictures, perfect for this age.The four year old likes to use his imagination and build his own creations.I actually regret not buying two sets of these for Christmas. My seven year old is already asking for a set for his January birthday.Both of my boys also love video games and this set is one of the few toys they play with when video game time is over.This set has a been a hit this Christmas and I look forward to buying more Knex building sets for my boys. ...

great fun!
This is our first experience with Kinex and we are very pleased.Our boys ages 3 and 5 both have spent hours making creations.It comes with two sets of eyes, which is important for two builders to work at once.Only one nose piece, but that is the only complaint.This toy is fun for a wide variety of ages and personalities, the possibilities are endless.Now we just need more pieces...

1st K'Nex purchase...loved it but better value in other kits
This is my first K'Nex purchase for my 4 year old son.I knew there weren't a ton of pieces when I ordered it but I wanted to buy a small amount just to see if he liked it.He does!He has enjoyed creating all different kinds of creatures and vehicles.I do feel that I paid up for the cute container.If I had to do it again I would but a "starter" kit in a plain box. ...

Fun Quality Toy
I bought this for my three year old daughter for christmas. She could spend hours playing with it if i let her. The pieces are thick and durable and there are enough pieces to be very creative. My husband and eight year old son also enjoy playing with her and her kid nex.

Kid Knex Rock
My boys love Kid Knex.They have a huge tube of Legos and Mega Blocks and Lincoln Logs and... that they NEVER play with.When my son started asking for Kid Knex I ignored him.But his aunt was listening and he recieved Footed Friends and Bug Eyed Buddies for Christmas.My boys age 3 and 5 spend endless hours playing like these blocks.My five year old is asking for more Kid Knex for his birthday.These blocks are a great choice.

Knex Rocks It...
My son had a heck of a time creating mythical creatures out of these small plastic rods...at least, until he ate them all. I recommend this toy if you're kid doesn't look at Knex and see chicken wings. ... Read more

Christmas present that doesn't stay in the closet
My 4-year-old has enjoyed these so much.He has the Roving Rollers and the Building Buddies sets.He can look at the pictures in the "building book" and make many of them all by himself. He has created his own "mosquito" and "cartwheel man" with help from his big sister, who is almost seven, and loves these toys, too.This is the kind of toy that will not end up in the bottom of the closet!!!

Wow--A Toy the Kid Will Play With
Legos, Duplos, Ello.. they don't hold a candle to the Kid Knex in the series. Unbelieveable how much our 6 year old daughter plays with these and our 3 YO son too. These have a good feel for kids too. Bright. Easy to use. We have all in set now. BRING ON SOME MORE!

FABULOUS!!(3 1/2 year old loves it!!!)
Comes with great "directions" - a booklet simply depicting many ways to build creatures (by just showing pictures of completed creatures).Our son could easily replicates these creatures and is really into it!Considering the many toys he has, this is a unique one which he plays with again and again!:) ...

We love these
My 2 1/2 year old is having a ball with these. He makes things out of these and then tells me what they are. Of course they look nothing like claims it to be but he is really using his imagination and having fun. I think it won't be long before he's building cities around my house with these.I LOVE any toy that comes in its own carrying case. That was a bonus with these

Love this Toy!!
My 5 yr.old son and 3 yr.old dd, love these, they have all the different types and I dumped them all in a tote with the books and they play with them that way, It's very easy to make the different things out of the books, we have lots of fun with them, I just wish they would come out with a bigger container full of them in the big plastic form. just so that we don't have all the cases laying around.
We got one for a gift for one of his friends and they loved it too. Would recommend to anyone with small kids.

better than legos
I wish I had known about Knex sooner. We just bought the Rovin Rollers but I anticipate buying more in the series.I like legos and it's nice that there are versions of legos that a young child can use.However, with legos, a young child (say 4 and under) can't really do anything interesting with them other than make stacks and bigger stacks. With Knex, they can put together 3 or 4 pieces and have something interesting with an eyeball or wheel.Some of the parts are prebuilt to make building go quicker.There is also a book which gives you ideas of things to make.I found myself playing with this!

Yes.There are small parts but I just keep an eye on my 2.5 yr olds.They have yet to put the small pieces in their mouth but did once chew on a bigger piece.

Yes.As another reviewer said, I wish it had a bigger case.A parent has to pack it and pack it carefully or it won't close. That said, it is a nice sturdy case and has held up well to my kids sitting and standing on it.

Worth every penny! ... Read more
