Standing over two feet tall, the Weird & Wacky Contraption Lab has 60 mix-and-match pieces to build an unlimited amount of contraptions. Kids can dream up crazy courses, then build and test them using this easy-to-construct Velcro®-like system. Instructions offer tips and tricks on how to best manipulate the kit’s components. It guides kids through five sample contraption designs while they learn how to predict the outcome of each.

As one of the top online toy retailers, we have access to unprecendented quantities of product review data. One of the key ways that we use this data is by associating our products to the specific ages and genders of the kids who are playing with them. Whereas most retailers must rely upon manufacturer suggested ages (i.e. 3+), we take actual customer usage and share it with you here so that you can choose the perfect toy or game.
But how does this help me? You can use these graphs as a general measure of it's appropriateness for a given age and gender. While this information is generally accurate, it should not be used as an absolute answer. For instance, many dinosaur toys are purchased for boys, however, that doesn't mean that it's inappropriate for a girl who happens to like dinosaurs.

NOTE: The orange color in the charts above indicate ages that are LESS than the manufacturer suggested age. Please purchase at your discretion if your child is younger than 8 years of age.

My 4yr old son loves this toy. He plays with it every couple of days. The only problem we had with this toy was the felt backing came unglued in the corner and started coming off. I called Fat Brain and they called the manufacturer and within a week I was sent replacement backers. These have help up good, so maybe our set was defective. This set is fantastic for helping a child see cause and effect, use their creativity, and problem solve. He loves the shootable pig piece. Even my 8 and 7 yr old girls have played with it and enjoyed it. Overall, I am pleased with this purchase and would buy it again.
Great Toy

My 9 year old nephew received this for his birthday and he loves it. He gets a lot of play out of it and the different things he can put together really keep him busy.

Had not seen any kit like this before...my son loves a game online that lets him make a marble run with parts like in this kit. He loves it! We love it because it brings the computer game to hands-on fun. Great quality! Tons of fun!

Bought this for my grandson for Christmas.......he loved it but the frame is flimsy and the velcro doesnt grab like it should....but he keeps trying and is so excited when it all goes right. Needs some improvement but it is a great toy and and i would probably buy it again even with the frustration factor cuz he keeps dragging it out to play with.
