Do your kids like to create? Maybe they are budding artists that like to sculpt magnificent statues out of clay. Or, maybe they are little engineers who like to build cars, buildings, and other fun contraptions. I love learning through play, since when kids can engage in hands-on activities, they are more enthusiastic about learning about how the world works. Learning should be fun, after all!
One way we like to encourage Sophie and Xander to use their imaginations in a tactile way is by playing with building sets like TINKERTOYS. TINKERTOYS are a classic, loved by generations. These great building toys are our kids' first choice since they're durable, easy to use, and are very versatile. They can even grow with your child as their building skills improve!
Recently, we received the TINKERTOY Wild Wheels Building Set to check out for ourselves. This set is ideal for kiddos ages 3 and older, and comes with 76 colorful pieces. 8 of them happen to be wheels, which can be used to create some really cool vehicles.
TINKERTOY pieces are made from super-durable, lightweight plastic. They just snap into place, and they STAY in place. This is very important in my home, since my kids tend to get frustrated when things just come apart.
We have been having tons of fun creating cars, trucks, and more with our Wild Wheels Building Set! Instructions are included, and give some easy project ideas. Don't stop there, though! With TINKERTOYS, the possibilities are endless. All you need is some imagination!
Overall, we're definitely loving our TINKERTOY Wild Wheels Building Set. Sophie and Xander love making cars and racing them. If they get tired of their car's design, they can easily make modifications just by adding or removing some pieces. This is a great way to encourage both creativity as well as critical thinking and hand-eye coordination.
If you have little builders in your home, definitely check out all of the fun that TINKERTOY has to offer! How to Connect :

When my kid was little, yes she played with Tinker Toys and I wish I still had them for my 3 year old grandson to play with now.

My nephew wanted me to go buy new ones after I pulled out my old ones from the '60's. It's great to see a toy that is still on the market after so many years.

Yes, my kids play with Tinkertoys when they were kids. In fact, I played with Tinkertoys when I was a kid. If I were to win this, I would give these to my niece's twins. They will be 3 on their next birthday. What a wonderful birthday present, eh?

I peeled out my Tinker-toys from when I was a kid, and got my nephew into building them. They are never going out of style.
