ABOUT:
K’NEX is a brand whose goal is to inspire creativity, build self-confidence and encourage interaction among children and parents. Their products include building sets including Lincoln Logs, Sesame Street, Mario Kart Wii, Nascar, and Monster Jam!
MY THOUGHTS:
K’NEX is a brand that you may think is just building sets, but they are really so much more. The sets include such a variety of products for younger kids through older kids (even my husband loves the bigger complex K’NEX sets!) I got the chance to check out a few K’NEX products and as expected my kids loved them!
K’NEX Mario Vs Piranha Plant Building Set
Bring Mario™ Kart™ Wii to life! Build Mario™ in his Sprinter Kart and race past the Piranha Plant from the Mario™ Circuit Track. The set includes the parts to build Mario™, a Sprinter Kart with a super-fast, battery-powered motor, a Piranha Plant obstacle and 2 collectible items from the game: a Mushroom and a Green Turtle Shell! Also includes 6 pieces of buildable, interconnectable track – combine this set with other sets from the Mario™ Kart™ Wii Series to build even bigger tracks! Ages 6+. Standard K’NEX parts made in the U.S.A. Special components made in China. Packaged in the U.S.A. $29.99
- Build Mario™ in his Sprinter Kart
- Moving Piranha Plant Obstacle
- Super-fast, battery powered motor for kart
- 2 collectible items: Mushroom and a Green Turtle Shell
- 6 pieces of buildable track
- Ages 6+
This Mario set can stand alone or be connected to the other Mario K’NEX sets for a big race set. My boys were fine though with the small piece and watching Mario try to race past the piranha! While the set is for ages 6 and up, I will say even my husband had some trouble putting it as the piece that holds and moves the piranha is pretty complex. I will say the directions are very clear but it just takes a lot of patience and following directions.
Once together though the set was pretty together and help up to Mario racing!
Building the car was pretty easy and perfect for my boys to help. His car does require 2 AAA batteries which are not included and screw into the bottom piece.
Overall, my boys had a blast with Mario once it was set up. Mario does go pretty fast too and they thought it was so cool that a car they “built” is battery powered. I think it will be a lot of fun to get all the Mario K’NEX sets for a huge racetrack!
Best Friends Building Set
Your child can build and play with best friends Elmo & Cookie Monster! Set includes 8 chunky pieces so your child can easily build these well-loved pals and take them on fun and memorable adventures. Dressed in their caps and t-shirts, Elmo and Cookie Monster are ready for anything your child can imagine! $5.99
- Includes 2 buildable characters
- Build and then play with best friends Elmo & Cookie Monster
- Big chunky pieces make it easy for small hands to build
My boys (3 and 5) love building little figures with their blocks and this set was perfect for them to get started. There are just four pieces for each Sesame Street character and the pieces are of course interchangeable! It was very easy for them, but for a younger child it would probably be a good little challenge for them. The pieces are heavy plastic so they will be durable for everyday fun!
Lincoln Logs White River Ranch
With 90 building pieces including a hay bale, trough, dog, cow, horse and cowboy figures, your child can build several different styled log cabins with extra pieces left over for a fence or other outdoor structure. Use the included instruction sheet for building ideas or encourage your child’s imagination by allowing them to build freely.
When I was little, one of my favorite toys was Lincoln Logs. I remember laying on the floor for hours building log cabins. Back then I only had regular boring blocks so when I got Lincoln Logs they were so different. The possibilities were endless with those logs really sparked my creativity. I love that I can now share my love of Lincoln Logs with my boys. They thought they were so cool, especially my 5 year old who is into wood and trees!
The White River Ranch set is great because it not only contains all the logs you need to build a ranch but also a figurine and some animals. My boys followed the directions (with a little help) and in no time they had the set built. I highly recommend Lincoln Logs for both boys and girls of all ages!
Overall, K’NEX is a brand that features so many great products from preschoolers and up that I have a feeling they will be part of our family for a long time!
