Interlox {Guidecraft Mom Review and GIVEAWAY}

Guidecraft has created another amazing building toy ~ Interlox 96 piece setimageThis set has sparked creativity and imaginative play in my 7 year old daughter and my 4 year old boy.     

About Interlox 96-Piece Building Set

Interlox building set contains 96 brightly colored translucent pieces, in 6 different colors;  yellow, blue, purple, green, orange, and pink.  Each block has a design inset on it (heart, square, circle, diamond, star, octagon, or flower).  The building pieces slide and clip together ~ no tools or small pieces required.  The set is recommended for ages 3 and up.

What We Thought

Finding toys that my daughter and son can both use to create and build with is a struggle.  I often hear that something Aiden likes is babyish, and Aiden gets frustrated with small pieces that are hard to put together.  Not with this set, each of the kids used the building pieces to create things that interested them.  My daughter created things for her Polly Pockets, including a Mall,

and bed. IMG_5137

My son had no problem sliding the pieces together.  He made an airplane

IMG_5125  and lots of tall towers.

IMG_5175

Mommy was please because I could throw in some educational activities.  Aiden counted the pieces and Emily skip counted by 2’s,  3’s, 4’s, etc.

We worked on patterns and naming all the shapes. IMG_5158

I love the art center furniture! We have "little artists" in our house, and they would love having the supplies at their fingertips. I like that everything stores away neatly. All the products are wonderful. I love the fold up kitchen set also!

Oh my...I'm with everyone else. How do you choose??! :) I actually do love the Interlox--they are pretty awesome!

I love so many things but the kitchen helper is fun and practical. My daughter is very big on wanting to help with cooking and often it is hard to do because she is not quite tall enough to reach everything safely and her standing on a chair scares me.
