K'nex has made an absolutely wonderful product. I have a 5 year old boy, a 4 year old girl and an 18 month old girl. I am very conscious of purchasing toys like this because my youngest still puts things in her mouth; this toy has several pieces and is very baby friendly. It does have a few small pieces however you can keep track of them easily. The instruction booklet is colorful and easy for my son to follow. My 4 year old daughter loved making windmills. Also, I have not found a toy yet that my kids could not break until I purchased this. As far as being educational my son had to really sit down and take the time to see what pieces he was using and which direction that should be placed. Very fun, very durable (I even enjoyed playing with it). The only thing I would change about this toy is the case it comes in, the parent really as to be the one putting the toy away because the pieces have to be put in an exact way in order for the top to go down.

My 3-year old son just received the Footed Friends for his birthday from his uncle. When I first saw it, my impression was that it would be too frustrating for him. He's not that interested in building with blocks BUT he has a great imagination and once he figured out how to put the pieces together(about 20 minutes), he had so much fun. Everyone in the family has enjoyed creating a variety of critters, machines, tools...it's a blast! We just discovered that you can even use the case as a building platform. A fun idea: throw in a package of feathers. They stick really well into the little blue rods...adding a little magic and spice to your critter or machine. This toy is not only fun but educational. It has inspired story-telling and has increased my son's understanding of structures and space and how things work!

I have a 2 year old and 5 year old, they both love this set and the other Kid Kinex set they have (Footed Friends). It is always wonderful to find something they can both use and enjoy; that is stimulating enough for the older and safe for the younger. The pieces are sturdy and you can really play with what you created.

The only two faults are:

One set, especially the smaller ones, are not enough pieces by themselves. Soon we had built everything possible and wanted more, hence we bought a second set.

My children find it hard to get the pieces back in the carring case, it is a little too tight, and it hinders cleanup.
