My son wanted this for Christmas one year. He has played with it a few times. It's fun, but I feel that it was over-priced.

Hours of Fun

Students love this game. We have a earthquake challenge contest where students engineer the best build that will withstand the earthquake. Even the older students still want to play the earthquake game even after they're mastered the activity years ago. Would recommend to any teacher or parent for their students or kids.

Great toy for my kid and his grandpa

I bought this toy for my toddler to play with his grandpa who is into construction. My toddler is still young but I feel this toy will grow with him. It's already interesting even though for now he just enjoys the chaos of the blocks collapsing. I'm looking forward to seeing him learn more with it in the future once he understands some more complex concepts.

Disappointing Longevity Issues

This toy has an entertaining and inquisitive concept. If it were better made, I would purchase it again. Unfortunately, it lasted less than a year and a half with only occasional use (once every other month is a generous estimate.) Over 18 months, that is less than 10 uses before it inexplicably stopped working. No tinkering or battery changes worked - it is simply dead as a doornail. $40 demands better quality.

This was in my child’s kindergarten and first grade class. Great STEM toy that we bought it for our home. Definitely teaches about structure and foundation concepts

Hands-On Learning for all family

My 5-year-old loves this kind of thing. His father is an engineer. Both are now on the floor, playing and learning. It's worth the investment... for sure.
