Clics Glitter Spin Around Set

Everything about this set is fine, but connection the gears and the axle (and there are three of them in a set) are very stiff! A connection like that is difficult to assemble EVEN FOR AN ADULT! So the children can’t play on their own! The idea behind the whole Clics Glitter Spin Around is good, but poorly executed. I, as a mother, was very upset about this part. As a result, the adults of our family had to put on and remove the wheels on the axle several times themselves. After this, the child was able to completely assemble both carousels and trains on her own. Now we play and have fun. 🙂

But my daughter was glued to this set for two days. She made all the models herself (she is 5 years old), I just helped bend and insert the arcs for the carousel. This set has an auxiliary part, a rotary block, it’s a very interesting thing. Thanks to it you can build carousels and other spinning attractions.

The second set I bought was a Glitter Bucket set, which is just a common Clics set with some glitter pieces. It has wheels, but no axis pieces. So it’s very similar to the medium-sized non-glitter sets.

Clics Glitter Carousel Set 90 Pieces

This set exceeded all expectations! My daughter doesn’t really like building sets. She plays only with her older brother or with me, never herself, and she is also firmly believes that construction sets are for boys :). It’s is impossible to convince her otherwise). And then there’s the glitter thing. “Oh, is this for girls?!”. She was glued to this set for two days (I also bought a glitter bucket). She made all the models herself (she is 5 years old), I just helped bend and insert the arcs for the carousel. Clics Glitter carousel set has an auxiliary part, a rotary block, it’s a very interesting thing. Thanks to it you can build carousels and other spinning attractions. But it turned out that all the Clics figurines for boys… There are pirates some characters with mustaches and beards. There are other dolls riding in the carousel for now, but maybe the manufacturer will release Clics princesses, Clics girls and maybe even Clics animals?

Clics Spring

Clics spring close-up. It’s a very simple, but very interesting thing, and it acts like a real spring.

ClicsToys is a Belgian company that was founded in 2001. They operate their own factory located in Kempen, where they manufacture the well-known Clics building blocks. These building sets consist of square pieces, all of which share the same form and shape. They easily connect at their edges, forming joints that can be moved.
Since the fundamental components of Clics are square, the basic forms you can build are typically cubic or brick-like. Nevertheless, thanks to the movable joints, you can connect them at various angles, resulting in diverse shapes. With careful assembly, it’s even possible to create triangular or sloping figures. However, the cubes remain the most robust and dependable structures this set can offer. Additionally, you can explore the option of crafting flat mosaics by combining pieces of different colors.
Using these plastic squares, you can construct flat surfaces and transform them into 3D shapes. Despite having relatively few extra pieces and accessories, Clics offer limitless creative possibilities. Some sets may include wheels and decorative panels, but these are the primary add-ons. On the plus side, Clics sets generally contain numerous pieces, enabling you to create complex structures with a single set.

ClicsToys, a Belgian company established in 2001, operates its very own factory located in Kempen, where they craft the popular Clics building blocks. These building sets mostly have square pieces, all sharing identical form and shape. What sets Clics apart is their ability to connect smoothly at the edges, allowing flexible joint movements.

Using these plastic squares, the creative possibilities are endless, even though Clics sets usually offer relatively few extra pieces and accessories. Some sets may include wheels and decorative panels, but few extra items. The true strength of Clics lies in the generous number of pieces in their sets, allowing you to make even biggest creations with ease. The pieces of Clics are too big to swallow and easy to hold, so they are safe, but some connections can be too tricky to younger kids. So the most sets are recommended for children who are 3 years old or older. However, these sets will be interesting even for the 10-years-olds.

The fundamental building blocks in Clics are square, which naturally leads to the cubic or brick-like structures. However, the great advantage of these blocks is the ability to connect them at various angles, making diverse shapes. Careful assembly can even give you triangular or sloping figures. Nevertheless, the most robust and tough structures in Clics are cube-shaped. Additionally, you can create flat mosaics by combining pieces of different colors.
