What our experts think

This STEAM toy is not just great fun but also educational! Children were immediately fascinated by the packaging of this amazing Weplay Crystal Village. The children were all interested to explore the pieces, using the visuals on the box for initial inspiration, and learning the basic form and function of each piece. They started building immediately with a little demonstration by adults or older siblings. Moving forward, they used the “game cards” with their parents or caregivers, peers, or older siblings.

Overall, the Weplay Crystal Village set was engaging for all ages. It supports physical and language development, as well as encourages imagination and creativity.
