Rocket Construction

Well built, sturdy, and great for imaginative play. We bought along with other Tender Leaf rocket toys for a 2-1/2 year old and it has kept their attention for long periods of time. The rockets easily come apart and back together for great fine motor activity (but parts do stay together when playing). Lots of fun and a new favorite

I bought these to go with a couple of wooden dinos my girl friend bought me last Christmas. As a fan of old sci-fi movies from the 50's, these appeal to me. As kid's toys, they are for very young kids. They have 7 pieces each, totaling 21 pieces, not 18 as the description states. They are also easier to put together than Tinker Toys. And they look just like the photos. As a designer, I appreciate how these assembly line wooden toys look carefully hand crafted.

I absolutely love this gift and would recommend. The lack of 2 stars is because the ships must have come apart during shipping and had a bunch of little nicks in the wood, as well as the paint chipping off of one of the windows. I would return for a new set but there isn’t enough time before his birthday. They’re on the small side, but will be perfect for my son who is turning 2. I know he’ll love them, which is why I’ll just keep the slightly damaged ones. Will update with a picture when toddler isn’t around.

My 3.5yr old loves these and I think they are absolutely adorable. Nice to have rocket toys that aren’t gross plastic. They are easy to assemble and rearrange into creative configurations, but my he loves them best in their standard rocket form. Some reviews mentioned that the connections becomes a little loose over time and they don’t stay together as well, which is true. However, I just put some Elmers glue in the holes and let them set overnight - no problem pulling them apart again but it seemed to make the connections tight again.

This rocket construction toy has been a big hit with our son — he loves assembling the rocket ships and playing pretend launches. It definitely encourages creativity and fine motor skills. That said, the pieces don’t feel very sturdy. Some parts seem like they could break or stop fitting together well with frequent use, and the rocket doesn’t always stay assembled during play. It’s not the most durable toy out there, but our son still really enjoys it — just maybe better for gentler play or younger builders.

Tender Leaf toys are the BEST! These are a gift for a small boy.

Bought these for my 22 month old grandson and he loved them . He was able to take them apart and put them back together. Perfect size and beautiful, brilliant , colors!

I love the wooden interlocking design of these rocket ships. These are fun for my son to play with. The design is durable and has held up to my toddler throwing them across his toy room (rockets fly…and clearly the toy designer thought of that when building these space shuttles). The colors are cute too!

These are well constructed and being played with a lot

Good quality and cute. Bright colours, just as shown. Parts are interchangeable so child can design their own rockets. Rockets are 5 inches tall and well sized for little hands. I pictured them bigger for some reason (6 or 7 inches) but 5 is good. I actually bought these to use as part of a tradeshow display but my 5-year-old daughter pounced on them the moment they arrived and had fun building rockets for about half an hour. The parts were really tight the first time I tried to pull them apart but they loosened up quickly once I popped them on and off a couple times. It feels like they won't loosen much more over time. Right now, the rockets stay together well once assembled.

Got these for my 3 year old sons birthday. He loves them! Very easy to take apart, but stay together perfectly when playing with them. They were smaller than I expected, but that's fine. They are about 6" tall. If you have a kid who loves puzzles or building Toys, these are a great gift!

My son is intelligent but destructive. Regardless, these rockets are still intact after quite a while and he's had lots of fun with them. The parts are interchangeable so one can swap parts or add stages, etc. Call me old fashioned, but I've always thought that wood is much nicer than plastic.

It’s fine, doesn’t really do much but my brother manages to waste a fair amount of time messing around with it. Good construction and looks good.
