hexbug nano-ville

Graham and Parker have loved hexbug nano's for quite some time now. They get really creative in what they do with them. They put them on their step2 car and canyon table, inside of cabinets in their toy kitchen, on the light table, on the floor play tray, on their overhead projector, under blankets, on shelves, they build cages for them with blocks and magna tiles... and the list goes on. They have so much fun playing with them!!

They stay on the floor play tray and can not escape..  haha

They are trapping the hexbug nano's under the sea urchin balls

They love the sound that they make

giggling at the bugs that keep getting out of their trap!!  haha

  1. Dear Kristen! I love your setup! colorfull and creative.
    The Nano is simply incredible...i love it!-) Me and my 4-year-old son made some minigames with a bunch of Nano's and a hole lot of Dublos...
    minigames like: cat vs. mouse, robosoccer and Capture The Flag.

    I would love for you to read my blogpost about it here: http://constructingkids.wordpress.com/2012/08/14/lego-dublo-maze-for-hexabugs/ (I explain the learning potentials)
