Surprise, amusement, amazement, and joy are just some of the feelings parents can count on seeing their young ones display while exploring the pleasures of Grippies Builders set. This STEM building toy system for toddlers combines near endless replay value with rich and varied educational benefits. The exceptionally high quality magnetic rod and ball configuration makes building a wild variety of structures an almost magical way to play and learn. Youngsters take obvious pleasure in handling the rods, which are covered with a rubbery coating featuring a variety of colors and textures - bumps, grooves, lines and shapes that offer up a visual and tactile feast. Kids can't seem to get enough of playing with this 30 piece set, and the benefits - the development of sensory perception, a blossoming sense of basic engineering principles, and loads of fun - are as substantive as they are pleasurable.
