YOXObug Flye, one of the new products in the line of eco-friendly construction toys from Play from Scratch, manages to look both prehistoric and futuristic at the same time. The futuristic aspect is due in part to the uniqueness manufacturer Play from Scratch brings to each of its construction toys. They look unlike anything you've seen before. The prehistoric part is because, well, it's a giant, three-foot long dragonfly! YOXObot Flye uses notched Y's, O's, and X's that connect snugly not only with one another, but also to lots of recyclable stuff you can find around your house. Cereal boxes, paper towel tubes, and pretty much anything made out of paper or cardboard is fair game. Putting together YOXObug is exciting fun, and once kids get a taste of what YOXO can do, they tend to launch into making their own inventions. The fact that incorporating found items into those creations is part of the product's design elevates both creative inspiration and opportunities to new levels. YOXO kits are made from recycled materials.
