Do You Want To Build Your Own, Man?

Pixar movies are great not because kids love them but because adults do. Taking your kids, nieces, nephews, or even yourself to one of their releases doesn’t feel like putting in “kid time” – it’s just fun.

Similarly, building sets like this Buzz and Heidi magnetic one are smart purchases in part thanks to the value you will get out of them. Yes, building sets in general provide more bang for the toy buck because kids stay interested in them for a longer span (think of the age range appeal of Legos), but also because playing with them won’t feel like a drag for you. You could very well find yourself awake at 2 a.m., long after the kids are asleep, furtively completing your Wheeled Robot Death Car.

And to the childless Mehfolk out there: There’s no shame in buying this for yourself, just as there’s no shame in watching “Up” on the plane and sobbing so violently within the first 10 minutes that the flight attendants come to check on you. Not that that’s ever happened to us …

For those with regular playtime duties, you know well that playing “house” or “guys” can only remain fun for so long. “Wait, I thought the purple one was the bad guy.” “No! He’s only bad when he’s carrying the wand.” “This thing?” “No! That’s a stick, not a wand.” “OK, so the wand makes people bad?” “No, only Gargon!” “The purple one?” “No, that’s Gargana!” It can be challenging to keep up.

Plopping the kids in front of the TV can be less exhausting, of course, but also less stimulating. What with SATs and STEMs and so-forth looming around the corner, every educational opportunity must be seized. You don’t want them with a brain like yours, filled with total recall memory of the entire original X-Men animated series and little else, do you? Who knows, maybe playing with these magnetic tiles will push some of that from your skull and finally instill some problem solving and spatial reasoning skills. Maybe.

Using this easy-to-assemble magnetic building kit to construct your dream amphibious yacht will not just keep you as entertained as the kids, you might end up having more fun. Like those jokes in Pixar movies that kids couldn’t possibly understand, this is mostly made for you.
