Great Learning Resource
The toy is a great learning resource for students and young children. The toy is very bright and colorful and does come with fun stickers. Overall very easy to build and play with and use. The only downside is that the toy is not very easy to adjust and make the pendulum height change. The product says it is adjustable but, if you make it taller it becomes loose and wobbly. Overall, solid great children’s toy!

Great Teaching Resource
This product is a great way to teach children how pendulums work. The toy is very colorful and vibrant and visually appealing. The activity options in the instruction manual were fun to build and test. The only downside was that the pendulum height was not very adjustable it can only change its height by half an inch. When you adjust the height and attempt to make it taller it does become a bit wobbly. Overall pretty great toy!

simple, easy, and fun way to introduce basic physics
My 7 year old absolutely had a blast setting up different obstacles and varying the force and direction of the balls to knock them over. It was a simple, easy, and fun way to introduce basic physics and concepts of momentum. As a bonus, my 2 year old played lots of "fetch" and wore the rings as crowns. A total win-win!

Surprised Me
I got this for my 7-year-old daughter and it was a hit with her and my 10-year-old son. They started by just building different sets and knocking it down. They had no idea there were actually challenges in the instruction booklet at first but soon discovered them and were excited to tackle the challenges. The set includes everything you need and inspires kids to use items around the house to incorporate. The pieces are very simple and there is nothing to really put together, it is ready to go right out of the box (there are stickers included you can add but not required.) This set surprised me because it is very simple but has kept my kids entertained. I like that the box is a sturdy cardboard one that I can store everything in. It has got my kids thinking about cause and effect and problem solving. Definitely a set to get kids thinking!

Very Cool !!!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very good construction, this product seems to be well thought out from start to finish. I put this together with my 5 year old daughter and 9 year old son and they both loved it and you could see their wheels turning the whole time they were putting it together and afterwards. They both loved it and I also thought it was a great learning experience. Great Product!!!

Pretty Advanced Game for a Five Year Old
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The package states this game is for children 5 and over. My 9 and 11 year old daughters had a ball playing with the game while my younger son was less interested. The quality of the parts was excellent. It is made of heavy plastic and seems very durable. There were no instructions on how to assemble the parts, but simply looking at the front of the box was enough to learn what parts went where. The suggested "challenges" for the game proved to be just that - a CHALLENGE. My children tried several times to complete all of the challenges. I heard giggles for over an hour. They even tried coming up with their own challenges. While the youngest lost interest after about twenty minutes, the older children have played with the Pendulonium several times. I would suggest five may be a bit young for this game.

My daughter loves it
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter has had a great time playing with this set. She gets the most enjoyment in setting it up so that the ball rolls and her cat is the one to knock the cones over when he's chasing the ball. She loves it.
