This is the latest fad in our household.... K'nex. The boys received a small set for their birthdays, and they quickly fell in love. I managed to find a teenager selling his huge boyhood Knex collection for a pittance (bless you, Craigslist!!), then Alfie realized Knex had motorized sets and got into it as well, and all of a sudden we've got quite a haul!
Since this weekend's Photo Hunt theme is Triangles, I asked one of the boys to build me a 3-D diamond. Can you tell me how many triangles you can find in the structure? I've lost count!

That looks like fun. I think I see at least 18 but that's with a quick guestimate.

Looks like fun, I lost count too. Nice take on the theme.
That looks like fun, but I can't count all the triangles... perfect for the theme!

Don't ask me either. Lucky you to get a good bargain. Happy weekend to you.
Too many to count!
Had never heard of K'nex before until reading your entry. They look like a more advanced version of Lego!
Hey, my kids love Knex, too, but the junior version.
Ah that looks like a lot of fun. And so many triangles too! Happy weekend
Wow ! that's a lot of triangles !
This reminds me of the very, very, very old tinker toys.. now I am dated! Tell your boys they did really well! Mine is up here.
Excellent K'nex diamond, and lots of triangles. Nicely done.
Love your take on this weeks theme. Great photo too! Don't know if I can count all the triangles.
I found it hard to find triangles in my house this week but I did finally find some.
Mine's up and ready...come on over!
Ummm...is 'plenty' and 'many' a count number?! LOL
This is a great toy, BM! I'm sure your kids love to play with this :)
Have a blessed Easter Sunday!
