Keeping the kids busy and using their creative side over the summer can be a challenge.  Lucky for my boys, K’NEX sent them over some of their newest building sets to try!  Featuring popular characters, like Super Mario Brothers and Angry Birds, these sets are perfect for little boys.

Here is some information about these new sets:

Wyatt was immediately drawn to the Super Mario set and begged to open it right away.  It took him about 2 hours to get the set built and did really good.  Hubby did have to fix a few pieces to get all the features working properly.  Since we already have a few K’nex Mario figures, he was ready to play and has really enjoyed this set.  He has had to reconnect a few pieces, since they come apart during play, and he likes the jumping action platforms the best. His next conquest will be Angry Birds.
