Kids loved them
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got these for my children to play with during the school holidays. My kids are aged 9 and 5 and both enjoyed them. My youngest loved making the designs that were in the pack and so did her older brother. The pack has 6 mini packs that make individual designs as part of a wider range.
They were easy enough for them to make and look fantastic
They don’t need ironing or baking or gluing they just click together and can be reuse to make any other design
They gave us hours of fun and we have since bough more for birthday gifts because me loved them so much
Great educational toy that helps with dexterity and imagination

Brilliant fun!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely loved making these with my 6-year-old daughter. We had a lot of fun and it kept her attention for a few hours (until we'd finished the whole thing). Even my 3-year-old enjoyed joining the brix together to make colourful patterns.
The instructions and patterns are easy to follow, and the brix are easy to put together. They can easily be taken apart as well, so they could be made over and over again.
100% recommend these, and I will definitely be buying some more sets.

Perfect gift and hours of fun!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great toy to let kids really use their imagination and practice fine motor skills and concentration. It's easy enough to put together but they might need a little help from an adult to start with. It comes with a bag to keep the pieces in and the box turns into a tray to keep everything together. My daughter is 4.5 years old and can quite happily sit with a little assistance and build rainbows and spaceships!

My 6-year old loved it but it lacks diversity
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a cool and fun crafty toy to build. It has a unique locking design which holds all the brix together well. This is good fun but sadly the fun doesn't last very long. The lack of variety of brix doesn't leave much for imagination so I'd highly recommend getting their Studio Maker set instead.
This set is still good if you're looking for something to be an "ornament" for the kids bedroom.

Fantastic Reusuable Fun
I thought that these beads might be a bit fiddly but I was wrong, they’re a great size and slide together in a very satisfying and surprisingly sturdy way! Yet they are also fairly easy to take apart too. The beads seem well designed and well made so they’ll last well with use.
I was impressed by the number of beads that were with this set and the glow in the dark beads are plentiful which is great!
I was also pleased with the all recyclable packaging.
The box has a sturdy cardboard tray for the beads while you are building and it can slip back int the packaging to contain them when you have finished.
It can be easy to get a bead or row of beads in the wrong orientation but you realise quickly and it’s easy to swap them round.
I thought it might be a system where you had to build row by row but actually you can free style and make outlines and then fill in and even easily replace beads in the middle if you change your design without much difficulty and without your design falling apart.
I quickly found myself making my own designs and adapting the designs included in the set!
I love having a picture bead I can reuse over and over as I love the creating probably more than the finished picture so at last I can admire a picture for a while without worrying about jostling it and ruining it, and then take it apart and make something else.
It’s also great not to have to get the iron out to enjoy some making!

Interesting, colourful, creative
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So the number of bricks in this pack may sounds overwhelming but once you open it you realise they are quite small. This means that kids can get really creative with these and can create wonderful shapes - instructions are helpful. the downside of size is that depending on the age, some of them do go missing quite easily - although my little one didnt miss them as there are so many in a pack! The build quality is good and solid - there was no chance of these breaking easily. Colour options are great and the possibility of getting creative is endless. My little one remains occupied with this for a long time and really enjoys building shapes and things like sun, sea and grass etc. It easy to pack away in the box that it came in. Given the build quality and what it offers I would really recommend to parents of kids over 5/6 years.

Fabulous toy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have used this product for the first time and we are very pleased with it. Very easy to use, great design and assembly is easy for kids. My children love playing with it and made lots of designs. One built, the designs hold its shape nicely so kids had fun in pretend play too. Highly recommended and will definitely buy more very soon. Grest toy!

Neat brix that fix without tricks
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Brilliant, smart colourful brix, super easy to connect and make creative creations come real. The no mess Simbrix are truly innovative in design and use. My kids enjoy the simplicity of playing with them and have hours of fun designing and building. I like the 2D and 3D construction options, kids can make their ideas exactly how they imagined.
