Great family fun

We have a great time with this with our 5 and 2 year olds. The balls have to have the words "crazy forts" on top when ever being used - as the instructions state, and then you are good to go - all angles should work. It is a great hands on, family activity. Our girls help direct how to build the forts, castles, igloos, etc. They get to use their imagination too, which is always worth encouraging.
Waste of money

Falls apart as it's being put together and then continues to fall apart. I had to help my eight year old and even then I couldn't get it to stay together.
Makes kids cry.

This toy is a great idea conceptually, kids love building stuff. And like to play in forts! However once you erect a crazy fort and your kids actually try to play in it, the fort will fall down with little provocation. Then come the tears when after putting the thing up for the tenth time in a row you have to finally say, sorry kids let's do something else. I agree with a previous review that said your kids needed to be at least 8 have a go at Crazy Forts on there own. But even then the thing will still not stay up! Should be called "Crazy Pile of Sticks and Balls"
the good and the bad

I initially purchased this for a family get together where there would be kids in a bunch of age brackets The Good: Clever idea - it's keeping the kids and the men entertained & promoted great interaction between adults and the kids. It kept all of the kids busy - each age found something of interest - the older (7-9 year olds) had fun designing and building while the younger folk enjoyed the end product Doesn't take up too much space when deconstructed. The Bad: While you can make some good forts with one kit, I've been advised that we need another to reach the category of "awesome" Young children (I would say under 4) are going to have challenges with constructing the forts as the balls need to be placed in a particular position and the fine motor skills required frustrated the toddlers who were trying to help I was surprised at how easily the fort came apart and we had a couple broken sticks after day one. All in all this is a fun toy - I think the price point is a little high seeing what you get and it would be helpful for the kids if it was easier to tell which way was down for the connector balls. Since my children are toddlers we've put this one on the shelf for a little while - the age recommendation on this one is worth heeding
