Spielburg-Set

The panels snap together so easily that my six-year-old built a castle without any help, and we've already rearranged them into a spaceship and a tunnel. I love that the accessories let them change the layout every afternoon without needing new pieces.

My kids have rebuilt this fort three times in two days, and the fact that the panels click together without needing any tools means they can actually do it themselves. The open-ended design keeps them coming up with new layouts, which is exactly the kind of imaginative play I hoped for.

My kids have rebuilt this fort four times in two days, each time a totally different layout—the panels are light enough for my 7-year-old to haul around solo, and the variety of accessories keeps them from getting bored. It's one of those rare toys that actually earns its "open-ended" label.
