Sesame Street K’Nex

There is nothing like building your very own Sesame Street character. Nothing. While Big I gave up Sesame Street years ago, Lil C has continued to enjoy Elmo as well as Ernie and Bert. Now she has little miniature versions of them to play with.

K’Nex has created a whole new line of Sesame Street toys where children can create and recreate Sesame Street characters. Plus, children can create their very own by mixing Bert and Ernie up to create a brand new character. In addition to the pieces for creating the characters, there are additional pieces and instructions on how to create bugs, butterflies and other Wali-like characters.

Once Ernie and Bert are put together, there’s not a little one on the planet that is going to want to take them apart to put them away. Case in point: Ernie and Bert have been sitting at the foot of Lil C’s bed for weeks now.

Each set comes complete with detailed and easy to follow instructions for completing your character assembly. The pieces are large enough for little hands to maneuver and the pieces fit together without much pressure needed. The toy is really perfect for the suggested age group of 2-5 year olds and retails for $21.99 (Sets will vary in price. See website for details).

If you have a K’Nex fan in the house and especially if you have Sesame Street fans, you won’t want to miss this new line of very fun toys. The only potentially negative about these sets is that I wish they had just a couple more pieces so you didn’t have to disassemble one of the characters in order to make new creations. However, you can always buy another set to add to the variety.

This looks cool. I know some kids a lot older than 5 that would like to play with these.

This would be a great therapy toy for the 8 year old Down’s boy that I work with (not to mention the Sesame addicted little sister he has, LOL). Sesame Street and Veggie Tales are the only characters he’ll interact with.

Tell me what you're thinking...
