    Such a cool set except for the quality control
    My kids dove straight into this set and we're building all sorts of neat creations but within minutes the prices were breaking into the balls. What a shame because this is such a neat set that it tore my kids off their screens with enthusiasm. C'mon, learning resources! How are these suppose to compete for attention when they break so fast! ;P

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great Building Set
    Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2016
    My kiddos ages (8, 10, and 13) are loving this set. They are having fun not only making the items on the picture cards but they are also having fun making their own creations. The only problem is that the set is really only enough for one kiddo to have fun and create at a time. Ideally I need about 4-6 of these sets to satisfy my kiddos building fun. I would highly recommend this set!!! It is fun, educational, and great for abstract thinking. My kiddos have been arguing over the set since we got it in the mail. I have to allot a certain amount of time per kiddo. I guess that is a good problem to have. I love hands on building sets.
