Description

Every young builder deserves a set that bridges imagination and science.
The Engino 20-Model Multimodel Set is that bridge. Inside are 88 durable, snap-fit parts to build 20 non-motorized models- from vehicles and simple machines to imaginative structures with plenty of visual and functional variety.

Build support that grows with them.
Follow printed, step-by-step instructions for 1 key build, then explore the Engino kidCAD (3D Viewer) for interactive guides: rotate models, explode views to see inner mechanics, and rebuild with confidence.

Skills that stick.
As kids build and rebuild, they develop spatial reasoning, problem-solving, fine motor skills, and early engineering insight, no batteries required. It’s perfect for home, classrooms, or STEM clubs. And because it’s part of the Creative Builder series, designs can expand later by combining with other Engino sets.

This is a great next level idea from name brand blocks. If your kids are bored with their usual building sets, this is a fun, educational building set for your kids. There are a lot of pieces to the set and did have to help with the instructions and which pieces go where on a few of them. Even we were confused as parents, but it was great watching our kid actually thinking through the building process and troubleshooting the different designs and how to make them. There is some difficulty to some of them, but honestly our kid was able to get through just about every one of the models and is asking for more! It keeps her entertained for hours! Definitely recommend!

This is an amazing toy to play with, including different kinds of activities and experiments to do. I started to get confuse a little but got the hang of it after few tries. It was fun to get creative on your own way, it has easy online instructions and 20 engineering models. The plastic tub is very useful as every time we play we can just tidy it straight away. These toy is very handy and its also environmental friendly. Non stop fun and will get your imagination and creation run wild.

One of my foster daughters wasn’t super excited about legos, building, or anything construction or engineering related - but she loved this kit!

It was challenging enough for her to assemble with my help, but she did most of it herself. I hope the company has more versions so that we can buy more.

She loves to play with “her car” that “she built herself” and brought it in for show and tell one day to show off her construction skills. She keeps it on her dresser, where she keeps her favorite toys. The best part about this set was how proud she was of herself when she finished it. It turned out she had some insecurities about her abilities to build (she does have some hand-eye coordination and vision issues), and she’s so proud that with a little help she was able to put together her own car.

Engino's STEM Girls Building Toys offers a refreshing alternative to traditional LEGO sets, providing a diverse range of building blocks to expand your construction skills. With a variety of builds available, ranging from easy to challenging, this set is a fantastic choice for those looking to broaden their building horizons.

The selection of builds caters to different skill levels, allowing users to choose projects that match their expertise. The option to progress from easy to hard builds encourages growth and development in building abilities. The end products of the builds are not only impressive but also captivating, sparking the interest and enthusiasm of young builders.

However, when attempting to engage younger children, particularly around the age of 6, some challenges arise. The instructions for the easier builds can be a bit complicated for the target age group. While building with my child, I found that additional clarification in the instructions would be beneficial for smoother navigation through the construction process.

Despite the minor challenge in instructions, the satisfaction of completing a build is evident in the joy and pride on a child's face. The desire to try building another set showcases the engaging and enjoyable nature of the STEM Girls Building Toys.

Although there are companion apps available, they offer only partial assistance in clarifying certain steps. Improvements in the instructional materials, perhaps through more visual aids or simplified language, could make the set more accessible for younger children. Striking the right balance between challenge and clarity will ensure a smoother and more enjoyable building experience for the intended audience.

FAQs

What is the appropriate age to play with ENGINO?

The ENGINO system has been tested with children with the association of teachers and the department of Education of the University of Cyprus. It has been found that small models can be built even by 5 years old children. Bigger and complex models are more suited to 8-12 year olds, and our robotics and mega sets are targeting both youngsters and grown-ups as being more hobby items.

What if I lose some parts or manuals? Can I get replacements?

You can buy parts, instructions and books at a very low price from our online shop.

How is the quantity of parts compared to value for money?

Usually construction toys refer to the number of parts contained in a set as an indication of the set's building value. With ENGINO system this reference does not actually apply because the system is unique and the design of the parts allows multiple connectivity in all directions at the same time. As a result, there is no need for intermediate connectors between rods while ENGINO rods are also connectors! The ENGINO system can be described as a combination of the brick system and the spatial "connectors and rod" system. As of that, with ENGINO to build a model you only need around half the parts that you would require with any other conventional system! Furthermore, as ENGINO parts are bigger, the model is also bigger and more manageable. Parts are not easily lost and sets can combine together to create an infinite number of builds. Because the "number of parts" is actually misleading, we have introduced a new term called "connecting points" that indicates how many connections are possible with the particular parts contained in each set.

How many product ranges do you offer?

We offer 14 series that total to 85 products covering a wide range of price, age and choice.

INVENTOR BASIC SERIES- has been developed for maximizing creativity and imagination. In this range many different models can be created from a wide range of themes, from cars to motorbikes, from planes to cranes, from structures to machines, from animals to robots!
