Have you seen GoldieBlox yet? GoldieBlox is a toy company out to inspire the next generation of female engineers. Construction toys help children develop spatial skills and get them interested in math and science – learning and fun all wrapped up in one! GoldieBlox toys also helps teach engineering principles (hinges and levers) and builds confidence in problem-solving.
GoldieBlox sent us the Zipline Action Figure to review this holiday season. This is currently available on Walmart.com for only $24.99!
It’s time for action! More than just a doll, Goldie’s articulated shoulders, hips, knees and joints along with specially designed hands and feet are designed for action. With the included construction kit, kids learn how to build Goldie a 13′ zip line and send her soaring! (for ages 4+)
My girls had a really good time putting the zipline together for Goldie to zoom across the room. The toy comes with an instruction manual that has easy to follow instructions and pictures. It took them just a few minutes to build the pulley system and decide where to put the zipline up. They started with holding each end, and eventually thought about using the suction cup ends in the bath tub. Of course, this wasn’t nearly as long of a zipline ride.
If your daughter loves tinkering, GoldieBlox is definitely something to check out! There are several other kits available now, and all at a great price of $24.99! If you get one, I’d love to know what you think!
