Move Beyond Basic Building Blocks with Brackitz + Giveaway!

Brackitz provided a complimentary set for review. All opinions are 100% my own.

As a mom of young kids and a preschool teacher I am always looking for new exciting toys that encourage social skills as well as developing fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. From the minute I opened the box, I knew this toy would be a winner in my house with everyone. The box even states that it is for ages 3-103! Brackitz are wooden planks that connect to durable plastic connectors in the colors blue, orange, red, and yellow.

When I first took the toys out, my children could not wait to play with them! They literally dropped what they had in their hands to come check out what was in the box! All three of them grabbed a few pieces and began to build. My oldest daughter, who is six and a half, decided to use her Brackitz to make actual structures. First, she made a house followed by a playground. I loved that this particular toy encouraged her to use her imagination and be creative without the use of any electronics! Next, I watched as my four year old son played with the Brackitz.  At first, he had some difficulty figuring out how to connect the planks to the connectors, but after a few tries he became a “pro”. He created a “flying rocket ship” and began zooming it around our house! Not to be left out, my youngest daughter, who just turned three, got her hands on the Brackitz. She created a beautiful garden of flowers out of her Brackitz!

Overall, this is a great toy that really is fun for all ages. No really, I couldn’t help but try it myself!  My children had a great time playing with this toy and the possibilities are endless, all you need is an open area to play and a little imagination.  Brackitz is available in 50, 100, or 200 piece sets.  Oh, and guess what else:  they’re made in the USA!  Shipping is free too!  To learn more, head over to Brackitz.com.  You can also connect with Brackitz on Facebook and Twitter.
