My boys love to build things. Give them blocks and they are happy kids. A few years ago, we were introduced to Rokenboks.
With Rokenboks, your kids aren’t finished playing after they are done building their creation! Rokenbok combines construction with radio control.
The remote control vehicles are tough- so no worries if your kids are rough on toys like mine are. Really, you need to see this in action to truly appreciate it!
There four different levels of play: Preschool Blocks, Preschool RC, Full Featured (ages 6+), and Advanced(9+).
We were sent the ROK Works Construction and Action Set ($129.99) and the Power Sweeper ($59.99) to review. Both of these are for kids in the 6+ age range.
What I really like about these toys is that this is an activity to do together with my boys. My oldest took the lead and I guided him through building the first set. My little boys helped find the right pieces.
Once it was all together, the fun really started for all three, figuring out how the motorized parts worked and how to use the remotes.
You can either follow the directions on how to put the sets together or you can create your own design. Other sets can be added: you can use the sets separately, or build one big creation!
My boys are already asking for more sets! Two of them have birthdays coming up soon, so now I know what to suggest when family asks what to get them.
GIVEAWAY: One of you will win the ROK Works Construction and Action set!
