Better Builders Emotions feature the magnetic fun of the original ball and rod construction toy, but assembled as 6 dramatic play characters. The faces express 6 distinct emotions to which children can relate: happy, sad, angry, surprised, confused, and scared. The ability to recognize and understand these emotions and their association with colors provides invaluable depth to everyday play. Interchange the friction-fit hairstyles, 3 male and 3 female, to create new personalities and allow for personal connection to the characters. The 30-piece set includes 2 blue, 2 yellow, and 2 red ball and rod bodies with gender neutral shirts and shoes. Each measure approximately 3"W x 1.75"D x 7"H. Coordinates with all original Better Builders construction sets, as well as Better Builders Career and Community People sets.
