Discover this year’s top gift for kids, which helps kids build their very own DIY Minecraft Toys! Delight your children this year when they discover the “It” gift under the tree this Christmas!
I’m in full-on Christmas mode. It took me a few weeks to warm up to the idea, but I’m finally ready to embrace the holiday season. Bring on the Christmas Pandora stations, pour me some egg nog, and let’s put presents under that tree.
Lately, and by lately I mean for like the last two years, my boys have been super into Minecraft. Recently they’ve added something called Terraria into the mix. I’m not even quite sure what it is, except it looks kind of like Minecraft meets Mario. Needless to say, their Christmas lists are filled with everything related to these games. Only thing is… I wanted to give them something that they can enjoy without a screen attached to it, or even better… that doesn’t require batteries! {Gasp}
But what would they like that fits into that category, you ask? Qixels!!!! This is my new favorite toy. Turns out, it’s my boys’ favorite new toy too. Win-win!
From the day I was sent Qixels to try, Graham and Will were desperate, desperate, to give them a go. I’ve never seen them so enthusiastic about a blogging project of mine! 🙂
Qixels are cubes that fuse with water – no mess, no ironing, no fuss!
The tongue is out, so you know he’s really concentrating. 🙂
Kids can lay the Qixels out on the Fuser station, spray with water and close the lid.
They’ll have a blast pressing the Turbo Dryer plunger with high-speed action to set the station spinning, air drying the Qixels in record time!
My boys have been able to create their own 8-bit designs from start to finish without help from me. They’ve been working on the Qixels for the last few days now, and have designed some of their favorite Minecraft and Terraria characters, as well as a few other more unique creations.
See how Qixels work here.
Qixels are brilliant. Finally a craft my boys enjoy doing. They are developing their fine motor skills and working together on projects. No screens, no batteries, just good times creating their Minecraft worlds in real life.
The Qixels line is appropriate for ages five and up and is available at mass retailers this Fall, from $9.99 – $19.99.
