This is a brilliant toy for budding builders. I am very impressed with the amount of pieces in it. Very robust, colourful and is great for putting the small pieces back into. I would perhaps be good to have the box divided up so you can put the different shapes in different places. The overall idea is great. There are lots of different parts and I like the idea that there are pictures and instructions to follow in order to make particular things. The pieces are very durable and will last for ever, they are very well made. My son is 3 and likes to build towers and make shapes but he is quite young to get the full use of it. As he grows older he will be able to follow the instructions better. It is probably ideal for kids 5+. He just likes to build shapes and so he is happy to play with it. He has not found any other use for it though. He is a bit young, but with some help he could identify the parts and help to build things up. He enjoys playing with it but there are lots
of pieces to spill all over the floor so you need a fairly large area to play with it. My son really enjoyed playing with this set. It encouraged him to explore with shapes, to balance and counter balance and to put together things like cars etc. he really likes it. I feel he needs to be supervised with it though. There are great instructions and lots of parts. I would definitely buy it. Caution must be taken with the small pieces though. I feel it is a really good toy and it gives mega blocks a run for their money. It will last for years; it will never get boring as you can make simple or more complex shapes. It is the kind of toy that dad will get as much fun out of as jack will. I would purchase this item and would recommend. I really like it and believe it has many pluses. I am glad there are instructions as it would be difficult to just build something from scratch. Brilliant product. Ideally suited for kids 5+.  Laura Traynor – Jack 3 years

My son just loves to build so this was the perfect toy for Johnny. These came in a great storage box with instructions on how to build certain items. The box was packed full of a wide variety of building bricks. Johnny loved the pictures of certain items to build and we had fun making these together. Once completed we packed away neatly in box supplied. These bricks are easy to use and hard wearing. This is the sort of toy that will entertain Johnny for years to come. We have designed our own models using the bricks supplied and it has been educational for Johnny and entertaining for us both. Encourages children to be creative, enhances hand eye co-ordination and
helps them to understand shapes. A toy that has been a joy to have and Johnny just loves his construction set. I would purchase more and have recommended as a great toy for anyone who loves to build and be creative. Fantastic set of building bricks that are well made and will continue to entertain Johnny for many years to come. William Sullivan – Johnny 4 years

Seen and have similar well known construction toys – I am not sure how well this will compare. Love the storage box that
comes this to things tidy. Unfortunately, the clip top fastening my kids destroyed on the first day. Feels a more brittle plastic than other well-known construction toys. The construction sheets are a good idea, but disappointed not a laminated paper as tore easily. A good pre-school toy to bring out on a rainy day. I liked the building sheets that accompanied the product. It was great; this was actual size, so my kids could build on top of the sheet like for like. My children did manage to make the recommended item with a bit of help on the sideways joining feature (this was a bit tough for little hands), even my 5 year old struggled. But they did enjoy playing with the finish items. The sideways joining feature is a different feature and is unique to Morphun, however, small hands found this too stiff to manage themselves. The price is on a par with other similar construction toys. A typical construction toy. Lindsay Derbyshire – Donovan 3 Years
