Jean from the Artful Parent (www.artfulparent.com) uploaded a wonderful post in January about our Straws and Connectors® set! The post is entitled “My Kids’ Favorite Building Set–Using Straws!” and was published on January 30, 2013. Click on the title of the post to go to the link.

Her daughters created everything from a house with a covered roof, a playplace for pets and even wrote their own names with the straws! We love what her children have created–they even tested out our instructions on how to make the hot-air balloon using the straws.
