2 years & up. PolyForm Star Connectors turn a simple connection into many open-ended building possibilities. The 35 vibrant pieces fit into one another, allowing children to build horizontally or vertically and create new shapes as their ideas change.
Children can explore how a piece feels, rotate it, and find a place where it connects. These precise finger and hand movements invite fine motor practice and dexterity. Varied forms also encourage children to adapt their grip, recognize differences among shapes, and think through a construction challenge. Comparing colors and positions can make each design a chance to notice spatial relationships.
Activity cards are included as another starting point for creative building. An educator might invite children to describe a structure, make one change, and observe how the new arrangement differs. The connector set supports tactile exploration, critical thinking, and problem-solving without prescribing a single finished design.

The only thing that I feel anyone can really complain about, is the cost being a little on the higher end. Other than that this entire set up is pretty neat and fun. My grandchildren have had so much fun playing with this.
Lots of fun!

My daughter absolutely loves using these after school! She uses these in combination with her magnetic tiles to create structures and landscapes for her animals. And they are very durable.
Hours of fun!

These star connectors make a fun toy for kids. My 7 and 11 year old boys thought they were a lot of fun and immediately started building spaceships and towers with them. I like how they encourage imagination and help my kids practice problem solving skills. They look like they're made of high quality plastic that will hold up well. I think these would make a great gift for anyone with young children.

My kids absolutely love these! They are perfect size for holding. No magnets they just interlock. The set comes with cards to give you examples of what to build. You don't have tonuse those and can definitely build your own things.
great

My 6 yr old and 4yr old love them! They played with their blocks for hours!!!! These building blocks are nice. They are sturdy and good quality for the money. I have a hard time keeping them cleaned up. As soon as I clean them up they are back out!

These are amazing for preschool age learning! Actually all age, even my teens were playing with them! I helped build the snow flakes the sea anemone the dna and many more. They are very thick durable plastic that will last for years, are versatile enough that you could even use them in schools and many children could play with them. I wish there was more than 35 but otherwise their amazing learning tools for eye hand coordination, color, sorting, and many other things.
