Every year at Christmas we do the typical "Want, Need, Wear, Read" gifts as well as something I call a "Mommy & Me" gift. The Mommy and me gift is a gift that is something I can do with my kids. This is a harder gift for me to find because I want it to be something that they love, that also requires skill to put together or create. I often look for STEM toys because they fit that criteria quite well. This year, when I found STEM toys made by Gujo and Linxies my search was over.
Gujo and Linxies have created these amazing imaginative play toys that are fun to build that also get my kids to use creative and cognitive skills while playing. Not only is it fun for my child and I to build together, it is a fun toy for their friends to work together to build and play with as well. Once built, both toys provide hours of fun for kids.
GUJO
Gujo is a new line of building sets designed to challenge kid’s creative and cognitive skills. Each Gujo set combines artistic panel structures with long, connectable plastic pieces that link together in various ways, giving kids the ability to customize each set based on their creative preference.
We love the Main Street set because it has so many ways to create their own experience. My kids loved taking Claire and Madison throughout all the shops where they can find things to do, play pretend, and dive into this fun little town. They also have a Mission Mars building set that will send them off into space for their very own space mission that I can't wait to put together with my son.
LINXIES
Linxies is a series of children’s building sets that combines vibrant, colorful plastic pieces with artistic panel structures for a whole new play experience. From pirates looking for buried treasure to unicorns taking their riders on adventures, Linxies lets kids create an imaginative, exciting world of their own.
If your child is at all into unicorns, the Unicorn Barn will be a huge hit. My daughter has hardly stepped away from it this week. It includes not only unicorns, but their caretakers that help you explore the magical world you create. These building sets have so many accessories that there is always something new to discover and add to the play time. They also have a Pirate Ship Set which looks like an adventure we will have to try next.
The holiday season is in full swing, so if you are looking for the perfect gift make sure you check out all the different play sets from Gujo and Linxies this year. They are affordable ranging from $24.99 for Linxies toys and $34.00-$39.99 for Gujo toys. They both have FREE ground shipping in the continental U.S. which is perfect for holiday shopping.
All Linxies and Gujo products have been given a STEM certification, which recognizes the toy as one that promotes the disciplines of Science, Technology, Education and Mathematics, and improving core subject skills so kids can learn during play time. Linxies and Gujo proudly supports STEM related educational programs and the creative development of future generations.
I was given these toy sets in exchange for this review, but as always, all opinions are my own.
