We enjoy the whole line of hex bugs in our house. They are easy to loose if your kid is playing in total chaos with them, so have something to store them in. However this pack is a excellent choice at the discounted price. They move crazy fast and are pretty realistic. This set, $25 for 5 and you can open this kit up and use them for separate gifts for birthdays, friends etc.

I have four kids - 6 years, 5 years, almost 3 years, and a 10 month old. They all love these things, and so do I! I bought this five pack for Epiphany and we've been playing with them daily since. We did not opt to buy one of the pre-fabricated hex bug mazes; we use our wooden blocks to build our own mazes! We also have wood floors, and these things work great on them. The other place we use them is our train table. The edges are just high enough to keep the bugs on the table.

Cons:

The batteries run out pretty quickly. I'd suggest buying the 50 pack of batteries so you can keep the fun going.

It's pretty easy to lose these under appliances in the kitchen. One scuttled under the fridge and didn't come back out. I had to move it and discovered the reason was the copious amounts of dust had trapped it. Oh well. Good excuse to clean that overlooked space. Also, they like to dive into the furnace cold air return vents.

Will they continue being fun once the novelty wears off? We'll see. If the kids get tired of them I'm going to bring them to work to keep me entertained in my cubicle.

I have not received this order yet, however, I am dissapointed to have found the same item at Wal-mart for $6.00 less. This order is due to arrive on Friday and I will probably send it back
