Great Product!
Received today and my little one loves them! Within an hour of opening she had built the objects pictured and cannot wait to start collecting boxes and paper rolls to get even more creative! Even better they are compatible with Lego boards which leads to more creative fun! Sustainably produced, made in America, backed by PBS, and creative fun for the kids. What more could a parent want? We will buy again!

Simple toy to spark creativity
A very simple but creative toy! After opening the box with my twin 4-year-olds we started to create some of the example builds that were featured on the box. Within minutes their imagination was triggered and they started building their own models of ice cream cones, coconut trees, and other favorite objects.The pieces are thick and sturdy and they fit very snug so that the model stays together when the child wants to run around and play with it. I also love that the product is made of recycled/recyclable material and is made here in the USA (in my home state of MN nonetheless).I'm very happy with the possibilities with this 60-piece set, but I wish I had paid a little more and gotten the 120-piece set.

Kids thought it was cool
I don't even know what this toy is, its like......cool cardboard? I got it with the STEM subscription and thought it was lame...until my kids played quietly and kindly with it (5 and 7 at the time) for a couple hours, then again several times. leant to a friend who got their kids a bigger set. Babysitters are so much more expensive than cool toys!!!

I purchased this set for my 2 nieces and nephew ...
I purchased this set for my 2 nieces and nephew, ages 3-8, and they all went wild for this toy. I wish I had bought a larger set because the kids were fighting over the pieces. The kids were so proud of their creations that they wanted me to take a picture of everything they made. The 8-yr old was able to follow all the step-by-step instructions but also came up with many original designs.
