Great funMarch 4, 2006 22 out of 22 found this review helpful
The children really enjoyed this (boys and girls) and although they didn't play with it for a long time, still kept returning to it. I think it would be better to get one with more pieces if you intend more than one child to play with it as you quickly run out of them. The set also seems to be well made.
More fun for adultsAugust 23, 2004 Craig(Croydon) 48 out of 53 found this review helpful
I'm afraid there are only certain types of children who will find this toy fun. They will almost certainly be male and will need to be interested in constructing things. I've had a set with several kids and at the end of 10 mins I'm usually left with one 7yr old boy who is trying to build the biggest most complicated marble run possible. Preferably with two marbles racing each other. This is where the set falls down, because for this it isn't big enough and so after 30 min even the little boy has left to go and play with something with more variety.
The only people I have seen play with this toy longer are the adults.
