We recently got to test one of the new Sesame Street Building Sets from K’NEX.
Our building set was of the lovable Bert & Ernie. My daughter couldn’t wait to get this toy out of the box! In fact she played all afternoon and into the evening. First making the Bert & Ernie characters, and then making up her own creations using the extra pieces.
These new building sets are perfect for toddlers and little ones ages 2-5. Each set comes with chunky Kid K’NEX rods, connectors, and blocks along with activity cards showing how to build the characters.
There are 4 different sets to choose from:
$10.99 sets featuring Elmo, Ernie, Cookie Monster, and Oscar the Grouch (one character per set). These sets contain 14-16 pieces.
$14.99 sets feature Super Grover or Abby Cadabby. Contains 30 pieces.
$21.99 sets contain either Elmo’s World or Bert & Ernie (as pictured). These sets have 46 pieces.
$31.99 set is the ultimate Sesame Street building experience featuring Cookie Monster & Hooper’s Store. 80 piece set.
It was nice to see a building toy from the K’NEX brand for younger aged children. Often times toddlers get bored with blocks and your basic building play sets. These Sesame Street Building Sets provide building fun with the characters your children know and love.
* You can WIN your very own K’NEX Sesame Street Canister Building Set*
You will get one entry for leaving a comment on this post with your own Sesame Street memory (or favorite character), and a second chance for commenting here. Please leave your email address so we can contact you if you are the winner!
Contest ends Wednesday October 8th at 11:59pm eastern time.
Good Luck!
