GEOMAG KIDS GLOW

The set is small, it has only 37 parts – 13 glow sticks 58 mm long, 10 steel balls, 7 transparent panels – 6 triangular and 1 pentagonal, and 7 pictures with a pattern. We collected the suggested bat and the younger ones played with it in the dark. It’s possible to build a pyramid with spooky eyes or a spider’s web as well. The structure holds together well and glows brightly, it’s a pity the camera was useless in the dark. The set is compatible with other sets from the GEOMAG KIDS Color and the GEOMAG KIDS Panels series – there are also 58 mm sticks and the same large panels.

Clics Mosaic Rooster

A Clics mosaic picture. It’s actually very sturdy and all pieces hold together well.

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.
