A general view of our K’Nex playground models. We made it from a mix of different sets, including 100 crafts Knex kit.
K’Nex comes in two sizes: regular and mini K’Nex. There are also both thick and thin rods, and some rods can connect the larger and smaller pieces together. Not all K’Nex sets include mini parts, some, like 100 crafts Knex kit, only have regular ones.
Like other K’Nex sets, this one features pieces that securely lock together. You can easily take apart your creations and use the pieces to build something new. Regular K’Nex pieces have stronger connections, making crafts sturdy even during active play. Mini K’Nex creations are a bit more delicate.
Although the crafts you can make with K’Nex can be quite large, some of the pieces, especially the mini ones, are very small. This can make K’Nex sets risky for small babies who might accidentally swallow the pieces. These small parts can also be a bit challenging for younger kids to assemble correctly. That’s why it’s recommended for children aged 7 and older to use K’Nex sets.
It’s also worth noting that most K’Nex sets don’t provide detailed crafting instructions. Some packages may only show completed toys as examples. However, thanks to the versatility and creative possibilities K’Nex offers, this usually isn’t a significant issue.
Great job! It looks so realistic – we have a playground near our house looks exactly like that 🙂
I’m sorry, what are those grey and blue pieces? Our sets, big construction (400 pieces) and k’Nex ferry wheel don’t have these.
We made this playground from 2 suiltcases – Flying & Safari Fun Set. Grey squares and blue triangles are from Flying.
Thank you!
