 A Terrific Learning Toy October 6, 2005

I went to a science workshop with my child's second grade class. They were studying balls and ramps. This toy was there for them to explore (among many hand made experiments). The children were drawn to it and then made their own versions. Very education and extremely fun! I bought it for all my nieces and nephews afterward! Everyone loves it.

I purchased Frigits for my boys 4 years ago, (ages 4 to 11 yrs at the time) and they still love it! Every child that comes over to the house is automatically drawn to it. When I moved it from the refrigerator to the utility room door, (all steel Stanley type door) neighbor kids immediately noticed it missing from the fridge. Happy smiles returned when they found they had a bigger working surface without the marbles under the fridge problems. I am purchasing a few sets this Holiday season to give to my dear friends with children. Many hours of entertainment for all ages.

I gave this to my grandson, age 7, and he loves it. He has so much fun setting up the pieces in different patterns. It's a great toy to show his creativity and problem solving. Only drawback is you need to use an appliance. We are looking into making some kind of a self standing unit, and then he will be able to use it anywhere.
Fridgets November 6, 2006

I teach elementary school art and as a reward for students cleaning up on time and having good behavior I roll the marble. The Fridgets are set up on my magnetic white board. They are well and truly amazed. I've had a blast setting up the maze and watching students figure out how to set it up as well. I tell them to adjust the pitch alot and to remember Fridgets when they take Physics in High School. Presently, I own 3 sets and one launcher. I can't wait to see what the company will come up with next.
Fun for all ages January 10, 2007

I bought frigits for my 15 year old son because I thought he would get a kick out of it. What I didn't know was that everyone who enters the house would have to try it. My 80 year old dad, twenty something nieces and nephews, forty something friends, everyone who sees it has to send a marble down the ramps and then tweek the setup or create a new one. Buy this to make standing in front of the fridge more fun with the door closed.
