I love the Roger Von Oech's Ball of Whacks. I ordered only one and I wish I ordered a second one.
I have a very bright multiage class of Pre-K and Kindergartners. This group been together since infancy. ( my school is from infants to Kindergarten). They take turn putting the Ball of Whacks together. I have heard children use the words : " I discovered that.." "I am figuring out..." "it helps me concentrate." "I have been waiting for my turn to use it"

I got this for my six year old but my older kids play with it as well, its something very new and unique and my children have a great time trying out new shapes and designs. I really like the fact that they are magnetic and when u make it back into a ball, all th pieces are securely stuck together. A great concept!

This toy requires quiet time to explore the possibilities; it was not well suited to the insanity of Christmas day. However, as the day quieted down, new designs started to emerge. I am hoping that it becomes one of her lifetime favorites.
