I purchased this for my 6 yr old as a gift because of his interest in construction toys and I had a similar set as a child that I have fond memories of. My son immediate took a liking to the set and has been getting up early to work on it --- in other words, a very successful purchase and great item that will likely produce fond memories for him when he is grown and has kids.

Wonderful to share your childhood toys with your child

I use to have a set of these toys growing up and I remember building the tallest structure I could with the limited number of pieces I had. Since those sets are long gone, It's great to find this product again. Now, I can enjoy them with my children and see what kind of building and structures they would create.

Lot's of creative fun

Great set! Both my 4 and 7 year olds love it. They combine it with their matchbox cars to create whole cities.

Haven't tried it yet - it's a Christmas gift.

Perfect for the little architect/engineer!

I bought this set for my 6-year old, who is obsessed with the show Build It Bigger on the Science Channel. I figured he would get a kick out of building a "skyscraper" with the girders, beams, and window panels...just like the show. The one concern I had was the kit didn't produce the most aesthetic product in the world. My son LOVES it. He started building right away "from the head"--he hasn't even glanced at the examples in the booklet. We pretended we had iron workers, window panel teams, deadlines with penalties for delay, no margin of error, impending hurricanes...even I had a fun time. The window panels, which are sheets of printed plastic, are a little tricky to get on for a six year old, so usually I represent the window panel team. As for the aesthetics--well, beauty is in the eye of the beholder!
