Grippies Party

It's time to talk about another fun party provided by #tryazon. This one was all about Grippies!

They are a fun magnetic toy that is STEM based. There are different colors, 2 different lengths of sticks, and magnetic connecting balls.

It's super fun being creative with with the blocks. Some made specific shapes, others just wanted to connect them in random patterns. It says it's for younger children, but everyone can get into it. Even my in-laws started playing with them and put them on body parts reminding me of Pebbles from The Flintstones. We had a great time.

I think it's great to be able to learn about magnets. They had positive and negative sides, so that was a great teaching moment too.

My only complaint was the magnets aren't strong enough. The structures easily fall apart.
