We purchased this basic K-Nex set for our 4 1/2 year old son. We've been building things every day for two weeks. It's one of the few toys that maintain an adult's interest as long as the kid's interest. My son is able to build things by himself and has now started improvising -- learning a bit of "engineering" to make his own creations. However, he does have a bit of difficulty snapping/unsnapping pieces to/from the middle of the bar and he broke one of the pieces.

This was my 6 year old nephew's first set of K'nex. These are better than regular old blocks or legos because you can make things that move, bend, and roll. He loves to create different vehicles and robots, and already asked for another set.

My son Mikey loves to build. He is 5 , not only does he build what is in the books , but he makes up things on his own. He has 4 knex sets as well as the serpent. As long as your child likes to build I highly recommend knex.
