Quercetti Skyrail Rollercoaster with Elevator, 200 Pieces Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Look closely at the picture on the box. You will see that there are strings that are connecting the middle structure to the furthest away part of the rails. The reason for this is that the rails are not very rigid and without the strings, the rails will deflect so much due to the weight of the marble that they will fall off. The instructions have a few designs that the Skyrail can be made into, and due to the rails not being that rigid, there is not much more you can do with it. It might be a good toy for those that can follow instructions well, like to put together a lot of parts, are satisfied with the few configurations, that are careful enough not to break the parts, have the patients to adjust the strings properly, and are gratified with the sound of the marble going around. If that does not describe the child you are getting it for, then it will likely be constructed a couple of times and then sit in the corner and occasionally be switched on for a few minutes.

Guidecraft 72-pc. Magneatos Construction Set Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We got this for my son's 4th birthday, and he can't get enough. He loves to build towers, and all sorts of stuff. The only thing is, even with 72 pieces you run out quickly when you're trying to make a big structure.
Some people have complained about the magnets not being strong enough, and their structures falling over. This isn't the case provided that you cross brace your structures (i.e. put a piece diagonal across squares that you build) or build your structures using triangles. There's really no problem building towers that are very large, or very tall.

Magneatos (36 Piece Set) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have nothing but positive things to say about this toy. I purchased it for my 1 yr. old, not expecting her to get much play value out of it initially. However, a year later it has brought her -- and her father! -- constant play value. From learning about "apart" and "together, color grouping, magnetic polarity, learning shapes, stringing together, rolling, and everthing in between, the excellence of Magneatos seems basically limitless. And although she can't build complicated structures at this point, she enjoys watching us make different sculptures that she can help manipulate, break apart, and reconstruct. Another fantastic thing about this toy is that the magnets are just the right strength -- they stay stuck together when they need to, but are also easy to pull apart, avoiding frustrating a toddler.
I recommend (and have recommended) this to everyone I know.
