Each age group as been able to independently discover how the pieces work together, create all different types of structures with the gears, and work together to problem solve when they need to make adjustments to their creations. There were cheers and smiles all around when I showed each class the set and let them explore. The students are loving this gear set. The additional pieces of the planets, space ship, and astronauts was very engaging to all the age groups listed above. One of the things I like best about this set is that it provides the students a chance to work together and problem solve to improve their creations. I also love that because there are so many different ways the pieces can work together, the students get the opportunity to practice the skills of creating, celebrating when their creation works, and then take apart what they made to try something new. The directions that come with this kit are particularly helpful because of the colorful step by step pictures that guide students through creating the image on the front of the box. I do wish that the product came with more building pieces like the 100 pieces gear sets so that the students could have more opportunity to expand their building ideas.Written by a customer while visiting learningresources.comWas this review helpful?Yes (0)No (0)ReportGears Gears Gears Fun fun fun4/30/2017Average rating:5out of5stars, based onreviews4/30/2017by Dmgvalentine(Received this product as part of an incentivized review program) The packaging was very easy to open and is also great for storing the pieces when not in use. Once opened the pieces are very intuitive. 2we didn't look at the instructions much, we just played. There are sticker sheets to put some planet images on a few pieces which my kid enjoyed a lot. Once that was done she just played around, trying out different combinations and experimenting to see what worked and what didn't. I enjoyed watching her problem solve. I also enjoyed playing with the pieces and changing the set-up. I would recommend to your Little engineer.Written by a customer while visiting learningresources.comWas this review helpful?Yes (0)No (0)ReportRead all reviews
