"K'NEX is the next generation of construction sets. It inspires creativity, builds self-confidence and encourages interaction among children and parents. The possibilities are endless!"
When i was a kid i remember i spent countless hours building things it was one of my favorite things to do when i was growing up because you can let your imagination go wild and there is no limit of possibilities of what you can make. I want my kids to have the same memories and fun times to look back on. I still enjoy playing and building i was just as excited as the kids when we received our package from
KNEX. We didn't waste any time and got right to the fun!
First we built the Sesame street characters because my daughter wouldn't have it any other way she loves Elmo, cookie monster and Ernie i figured it would be best to wait till her nap to play with the others. They both had alot of fun with them my son was so nice to help his sister build them and then he took them apart and made some silly characters with them we all had alot of fun with these they were very easy to put together my 2 year old even started to get the hang of it.

Then after a long awaited wait my daughter took her nap my and my son got to it and we had a blast building The fire rescue 10 set and the collect and build construction crew series. my son did very well following the instructions he hardly needed my help only time he did was with the construction crew sets some of the pieces don't hold together tight and it made it a little more challenging even for me but we worked through it and still had alot of fun we still enjoy playing and building with them its one of my sons new favorite things to do. his favorite one out of them is the Fire rescue 10 because you can build 10 different things with it! hes made all kinds of things its amazing how kid's minds work i love to see them both using there imagination and having fun especially when they do it together.
