Creative Maker Studio Sets {giveaway}

Disclosure:  I was sent sample products for the purposes of review.  All thoughts and opinions are my own. 

Last month I had the opportunity to share some tips for raising a maker on a local TV station.  The Maker Movement is catching fire with the younger generation and I’m so excited to see that toy companies are catching the bug too.  We have two very creative boys that love exploring, and asking A LOT of questions.  These toys provide endless hours of structured and unstructured open ended play for the whole family.

Think Fun just launched their Maker Studio™ Construction Sets this month.  The Maker Studio consists of 3 different construction sets designed by makers/engineers for kids (Ages 7 to adult) who want to “build, do and explore!”; right up our alley.  Each set comes with all the materials needed to transform recycled materials into one of a kind kinetic inventions.  In addition to the main build are challenges.  Each card presents a different challenge, encouraging budding engineers to tinker with their build to create and fine tune their invention.

My oldest is 5 so we have been utilizing the sets for free build.  He isn’t quite old enough to master the challenges and engineering on his own, but building is fun too!

Each set consists of plastic wheels, gears, rods, and rubber connectors.  They also include a handy punch for boring holes easily into recycled materials.

    My boys would love any of these but probably the propeller set would be a first choice.

    The propellers set! I married in to a family of aviation enthusiasts. Any other answer would be unacceptable 😉

    I would like to win the Propellers Maker Studio Set. I know my sons would have a great time with the Propellers Set and the Windmill would be the first on their list.

    I would love the Propeller set for my son! He loves all things that fly and would just flip to be able build his own!

    I love them all but the crane would be my first choice. Thank you for the great giveaway.

    I think my kids would enjoy the gears set the most, but they’d definitely have fun with any of them.
