You won't be able to stop playing!! December 31, 2005

I bought the Junior set (15 pieces) for my 2 year old and she loves them! I can't believe how much fun she has playing alone and how much fun we have playing with them together. I even want to play with them after she goes to bed! She plays with them much longer than other toys. They stack in so many different combinations, the possibilities seem endless. This is a great open-ended toy that's sure to become a classic. I want the 30-piece set now!! Get the cards, too. I bought mine from Magic Cabin and it included the cards. The cards give you examples, and you try to build them. You won't believe how many different ways you can put these together! It's great for problem-solving! These are much easier for toddlers to manipulate than Legos and much more engaging.

When my 25 year old daughter sat down to play Wedgits with her younger siblings, she declared that she wanted a set for Christmas. She thinks it will be a great coffee table game for all her college friends. My friend got a set for her grandkids but when the family gets together her son and son-in- law monopolize them with their little competitions. These are wonderful for the imagination, and with Wedgits you will have a toy that adults will enjoy playing with and that makes the children very happy.
great for all ages July 10, 2006

I purchased this item for my 18 month old. I know that she is too young to get the full concept of the toy but I am certain she will grow into them. At the present moment, she is happy to stack them. They stack easily one on top of the other and they are easy for her to hold and grasp.
I was introduced to these through my mother who did daycare for two boys that just loved these from about ages 5 through preteen. They would check these out from our local library and be entertained for hours. Here is a tip. Order two sets. It gives them more building options and allows for more creativity.
Very Cool! November 3, 2006

Both my 4 & 2 year olds love the wedgits, my 4 year old however really gets into it. She loves to try and make what the pictures tell her. I was surprised at how good she was it. It really holds her interest.

My daughter received a Wedgits Starter Set when she turned two. We enjoyed it so much and the educational value is so high, that we added the Deluxe Set later when our younger son turned 2. I highly recommend getting the Starter Set first. It has 15 Wedgits, including a jumbo rhombus that is found ONLY in the Starter set WEDGiTS Starter Set - 15 Piece Set. Then add on the 30 piece deluxe set and the building possiblities are endless. In the Deluxe Set there is a little design booklet that shows just some of the things that you can make with these. The Design Cards are separate and have 40 designs plus tips and techniques. To my knowledge no other toy shows octahedrons and rhombus shapes. They develop spatial relationships with angles and quadrangles, teach horizontal and vertical by stacking and nesting and perpendicular and parallel relationships can be demonstrated as well. Models of molecules, space ships WEDGiTS eXplorer Pak 125 - 125 Piece Set and just fun, unique creations can be made with Wedgits. There are also Classroom Packs (see [...])and an Activity Guide Parent/Teacher Activity Guideto show how they can be used for teaching math and science concepts (ages 3 - 10). As with their other toys, I rotate the wedgits in and out of use with my kids (now 4 and 5)and they always enjoy seeing them again and I plan on using them in our homeschooling. As others have said, my husband and I enjoy them too. See [...] for the many other products and sets for older children that they offer.
