Bought to you from the same people who brought you Bubber, Mood Sand, Arc-a-Teks, and Pinklets, WABA Fun, LLC is company who knows how to bring out the imagination of kids. Another great product by WABA Fun, LLC is their line of Superstructs. A great line of connector style construction sets that are durable and have cute characters to add to the fun of building anything a child can imagine. They call it Smart Constructive Play and I could not think of a better description.

Wacky Machines
Check the recommended ages as some sets are safe for children as young as three and some have smaller pieces for the 4 and 5 year old crowd. All sets are compatible so you can make a fun collection. Wacky Machines is the set my little ones have. However, my girls just love the cute pink style of the Pinklets as well.
The Wacky Machines set is filled with gears and connectors of all types to create machines that could only be imagined. The book contains ideas to build a crazy clock, geared-down Ferris wheel, a thumping whatcha-ma-call-it, a car that drills, and more. Some machines are easy to build and some more challenging which always keeps this toy interesting. Once my kids learned how to make some of the zany machines in the book they began to create their own. My six year old loves this set and her big brother enjoys helping her but my guess is he really likes making some wacky machines. I have to admit I love toys like this because it makes playing fun for even the adults. Challenge your children to a wacky machine contest and see what cool things you and your children will come up with.
