Roominate #Review and Playdate!

I'm excited to tell you about a new product that came across my email recently!

Roominate is an award-winning, stackable and customizable building set.  It contains a motor and light circuit, modular pieces and universal joints.  There are ENDLESS possibilities as to what you can do with the Roominate pieces.  

We had a playdate with our Roomniate goodies!  I opened all 3 boxes and mixed them up.  I put the same amount of pieces into 3 different containers, but gave each child the makings of a "fan."




I sat the kids down and gave them instructions.  I told them they could build whatever they wanted with the pieces they had.  They were allowed to trade/take/give pieces to one another with permisson.  All children had access to the walls and paper, but my 4 year didn't have eyes for anything other than the Roominate pieces, so he let the two older kids use all the walls.

They got building and BOY did they have fun!

I took a couple videos of the kids because they were just too cute with these things!  SO engaged.  So creative and so QUICK to figure things out!



The Roominate Studio retails for approximately $29.99.  This is a 70 piece set, with 4 wall/floor panels, 24 furniture pieces, 16 connectors, a motor, switch, battery pack, screwdriver, doll, pet and 20 sheets of craft paper. 
The Roominate 3-in-1 Helicopter set retails for approximately $19.99.  This comes with 24 furniture building pieces, 12 connectors, 2 arches, a switch, motor, battery pack, screwdriver, doll and pet.

Our guest has already asked his mom for more sets of these!  My kids have been playing with them non-stop and haven't created the same thing twice yet ;)  I'm a happy mom and my kids are happy too.  What a great, educational and quality product that stretches my kids' imaginations.
