Review on STEM Building Kit For Kids Ages 5-12: Ultimate Forts Builder Gift Set For Boys & Girls! by Andrew Davenport

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Overall great value and the kids love it!

I really love this product. What a great idea to create new ways for the kids to do something they love, building forts (especially when we are inside so much these days!) I really like all the different configuration options, which means the kids can play for long periods of time by creating different structures. I like that the materials are lightweight and even my three year old can get in on the building. That said, the downside is that the structures can be a bit wobbly, but we have found that using sheets instead of blankets helps a lot. The only other downside to this product is that the balls are not labeled well, and did not feature an "X" at specific holes, as stated in the instructions. There are some holes that have a flat surface as an indicator to use that as the main point of contact, but it is tricky sometimes to line the balls up correctly to use angle holes. We do have to help, oftentimes through trial and error, to get the balls lined up the correct way. It isn't a huge deal, as we consider having to figure it out as part of the process:), but I can see where better labeling or at least the "X" referred to in the instructions would be helpful (particularly for younger users). Overall, we are so pleased with this product that we ordered an additional set to be able to build larger and more elaborate structures. I would highly recommend this for anyone with little builders at home!
