Every family will delight in having a WEDGiTS Jumping Frog in their living room. Yes, your child will actually be able to construct a mechanical, jumping frog with their WEDGiTS Deluxe set. WEDGiTS¨ offer creative challenges to the aspiring young engineers and scientists in your family. The open ended design of WEDGITS stimulates children's perception and reasoning skills as they experience different ways to stack, nest and align these rhombus and octahedron shaped toys. Kids can actually build a jumping frog, or, a water molecule through interlocking and levering of their WEDGITS.

Amazing how complex structures can get
»
My son (6) loves building toys - Legos, K'Nex, Magnatiles, Lincoln Logs, Zoobs, etc. These don't get played with as much as the K'Nex, Legos or Magnatiles which are his favourites, but he does pull them out regularly and enjoys building with them.
I'd definitely recommend getting at least this set (30pcs.) or more because you don't have as many possibilities with less pieces. With this set my son can build quite a few things out of the included book, or freeform just making up his own things.
The pieces are plastic, but durable and this set comes with two plastic holders to make it easier to store the pieces. I kept the original box so when ds is done he puts the pieces interlocking back into the acrylic holders and into the box to keep them from getting lost.

Pure Creativity

We purchased WEDGiTS for our 4 year old son after his tonsillectomy as we were looking at toys to keep him quiet but interested. This toy is perfect. It is great at teaching 3-dimensional thinking. You are not only building and stacking but also putting objects into other objects to create literal works of art. We were even able to create the WEDGiTS hopping frog (you push his legs and his whole body moves up and down). The deluxe set is perfect as it comes with two WEDGiTS sets. I would be afraid that with only a single set (15 pieces) you wouldn't be able to build as many structures. We enjoy creating our own structures but also copying structures that are depicted in the booklet that comes with the toy. I notice that there are add on sets. We may purchase these to broaden our building capability even further. All of our family enjoys this toy (ages 4, 8, 39, and 39).

Wedgits 30 Piece Deluxe

Bought this for my daughter when she was 4. She is now 6 and still plays with them occasionaly. Lots of ways to build with them. She brings them out whenever kids visit because most kids enjoy them. Even older kids and baby sitters get involved.

Everyone in our house loves this toy

This is a GREAT toy!! Every house should have a set. My kids really enjoy building with them, and I love to try different designs too! I like that you can challenge yourself with the multi-level cards (purchased separately) or just free play with them. Great for developing spatial sense. I think it will become a gift item for me to give those "hard to buy for kids".
