How do vehicles roll, tow and carry things? Our engaging building center teaches kids to look closer at real-life designs—and make original vehicles that use the same important elements! Created to encourage open-ended building with minimal teacher involvement, our center includes 8 photo cards showing actual vehicles, plus tons of hands-on manipulatives that invite children to build, explore and engineer—again and again! For easy reference, the back of each photo card explains key elements for each design—so it’s easy to guide children’s learning. You get 60 plastic snap-together pieces and 8 photo cards for building vehicles, exploring designs and identifying attributes. Center comes in an 11 1/2" plastic storage tub; longest building piece measures 2 3/4".

Kids love these

When I bought this item I wasn’t sure the children would like them. They want to play with them all the time and I had to buy a second set because they fight over them.

Easy to break

These are super easy to break. One adult stepping on a piece and its cracked. There are not many pieces in the box also so it needs to be for one kid maybe two if they are willing to build together.

Fun toy

My grandson had fun building imaginary vehicles with the set. However it is not easy to build real life vehicles since it does not come with instructions or examples. The vehicles pictures and descriptions cards are informative.

So-so

This is the least favorite of the 3. Initially my son was all over this one because he likes to build cars but he quickly got over it. The pieces are well made and high quality as will all of Lakeshore's products always. However, there are not enough of certain pieces and some of the pieces would have been better if they had connecting parts on both ends.
