Today is the 9th Day of Karen’s 2013 Holiday Gift Guide and today’s pick is the K’nex Typhoon Frenzy™ Roller Coaster Building Set! My girls love building things and I’m excited for them to try K’nex as they will be getting some this year for Christmas. I think some may believe this is a boy toy but my girls love things like this so I’d say these are great for either!
Holiday Gift Idea – Boy or Girl
I’m just going to take a wild guess here, but I have a feeling that there will be many holiday wish lists that contain some K’NEX items. Call me crazy but it’s a hunch. These are great for building on a child’s imagination but also great for fine tuning their fine motor skills. So it can serve as two purposes – fun and therapeutic!
This looks like a fun set, doesn’t it? I’m sure you can be extremely creative with this, especially if you have other K’NEX pieces to build on this. But the best part is it comes with a coaster car that actually has a motor and will ride along the track. How cool, right?

I love knex and I love roller coasters! This is a great set!
Oh my goodness…..how cool is that?! My 5 year old would flip over that!
This looks like something I’d enjoy putting together too! No way is it just a “boy toy”.
I really liked the holiday gift idea. Thanks for sharing Karen 🙂
