If you are looking for a fun way to build, check out K’NEX. They offer interlocking posts, turnstyles and gears come together to form various creations—Ferris wheels, motorcycles (Orange County Choppers), roller coasters to our son Jack’s fave: Monster Jam trucks.
The interlocking geometric shapes can create all kinds of different stuff. K’NEX also sells Brio wood train parts (again, a Jack favorite) and all-the-way-old-school Lincoln Logs…nice. And it’s the only company I’ve ever heard of that gives their corporate history via rap video.
