What do you buy them? Lego? Stickle bricks? Well these are a bit different and require the same skills of building things and fixing them together. I first bought these for my son when he was 2 and a half. At first he found it tricky to fit the parts in the holes but a year on and he is slotting everything together himself, so 3-3 and a half is a good starting age. What I like about this toy is that you can build something and make it move. Children can learn about cause and effect - "when you turn this handle this cog turns". Great little toy. The basic set packs away into a smallish box quite neatly.

Durability:    Educational:    Fun:   
I bought this and the Lights & Action set for my 4 and 6 year old boys. They love them and play with them regularly. At first it took a little bit of parental interaction in order to teach them the basics but now they are very happy playing with the sets on their own.

The only problem with the gears is the struts. Sometimes it can be very hard disconnecting the pieces, and two of the struts have split lengthways where the children tried to connect pieces together. I have written to the manufacturer and am awaiting a reply so I can't comment on the customer service.

Given as a gift to our 3.5 year old grandson, he won't let me near it!! I'll have to have a go when he's not looking.
