Kidsonroof Construction Sets

Monday, July 20th, 2009

Kidsonroof TOTEM TreeKidsonroof TOTEMs are highly imaginative 3-D puzzles and construction sets. Brightly-colored, amazingly-cool graphics are featured on durable, recycled cardboard pieces. Children take slotted pieces to create vehicles, buildings, trees, and a number of other increasingly complex structures. Highly engaging, the sets will stimulate your child’s developing intelligence as he or she applies creativity and problem-solving skills.

There are currently 5 different Kidsonroof TOTEMs - three with over 120 pieces each and two with about 30 to 45. The pieces are interchangeable to extend their play value and to increase the customization possibilities. 

Each set comes with instructions to assemble different structures. The Kidsonroof TOTEM City, for example, comes with a pictoral-based manual on how to build a spaceship, boat, house, and plane. Once your child puts one together, he or she will get a sense of how to use and manipulate the pieces to make his or her own masterpiece.

Kidsonroof recommends the TOTEMs for children age 6 and up. Younger children will need some adult assistance.
