My granddaughters (ages 10 and 8) had played with these while visiting a cousin. I ordered some to have at my house. The blocks are so versatile and can be used in so many different ways.

My grandchildren, 5 and 8 love it. It engrosses them and teaches patience as well as building techniques. It's very creative also.

Four grandchildren never surfaced from the basement building all sorts of contraptions with these. They were great for the holidays. No nuts and bolts, just pure imagination!

I just received some pictures of my Grandson using his new Keva Construction kits and he built a 6 foot Plus skyscraper. He is sitting on his fathers shoulders putting the top touches on. His father is 6' plus already.I'm certain he is really going to enjoy this set.

In addition to the ones I bought him last year, he now has 4 sets of these planks. Loves to create his own contraptions/structures every night ere bedtime. Simple, yet fantastic product.

My 9 yo son loves Keva Contraptions. They are brilliant because they are simple and let the child do all the imagining and problem solving. He has made roller coasters and other complicated projects. It is never the same toy twice! I highly recommend this toy for any child.

I was a little worried when we opened the box and it was just filled with wooden blocks (all the same size) and two ping pong balls, but my 9 year old son (a Lego and video game addict) spent most of Christmas break playing with these. He even took them to school today for "favorite Christmas present" show and tell. My four year old daughter, his father, his grandmother, and I even enjoy playing these with him, too! The small idea book included gives lots of ideas. Im glad I got both the big and little set because he has been taking the little set with him when he stays with friends or grandparents. Great product!

I ordered these products for my 9 year old for Christmas. She has taken these out a good number of times. She loves anything to do with blocks and marbles. It is a little challenging for her. She likes a little bit of a challenge. :)Perfect for a 9 year old

My grandson opened it and played with it immediately, creating how own construction, using all the tiles. The success of this product is that it challenged him and stimulated him to persevere until his structure was working well. Very educational and a lot of fun at the same time.

We got this for our granddaughter for Christmas. At first we were unsure of how it would be accepted. She loved it and her father, mother, and myself built and tore down and rebuilt many structures for hours at a time. It is indeed a great product!
