K’NEX Sesame Street Building Sets Review!
14Nov2008 Filed under: Toys & Games Author: lauralee
A couple of months ago, my girls got to check out a really cute new toy - it’s Sesame Street’s own Ernie, made out of K’NEX! We adore Sesame Street and we like K’NEX products too, so we had a lot of fun with this. K’NEX has several different Sesame Street Building Sets available - my favorite one is Super Grover, natch - and they retail for around $10.99 each. Other, more elaborate sets are available too - I noticed a set that pairs up Bert and Ernie and another with Cookie Monster and Hooper’s Store.
Each character can be constructed in various ways, and the coordinating pieces can be stored in their own custom canister. The arms and legs have hinge points too, so you can (carefully) move your little characters around once they’re all put together. We had lots of fun with this!
My review is coming pretty late here - we received this at the end of the summer, as you can see by the pictures of Nikki and Lexi in shorts and tank tops! Unfortunately, illness has kept me away from writing reviews for several weeks. But I’m getting my gallbladder out very soon, which the doctors are going to yank out of me K’NEX style, quick and easy. I’m looking forward to getting past all of that, so I can get back my regular ol’ life!
If you have little Sesame Street lovers, this would be a great gift, and it’s small enough that Santa could easily stuff it in a stocking. I wouldn’t mind picking up a few more of these sets for that very purpose! You can find them online at the link above or in stores right now!

My daughter Emma has the Elmo and Piano set. She plays with it all the time. It’s great because it comes with these little activities you can do together.
