Berg Moov

If your child asks for a scooter, give him so much more with a Berg Moov ($300) building kit. With over 150 components, kids can build any of the 7 models all by themselves with no tools or parents required. The scooter even has a brake and headlights! Among the other possibilities are a bike, crane, and helicopter. Once these wood and rubber toys are built, they can really be ridden or played with as enthusiastically as a store-bought version, but when it’s time to build a new model, they come apart easily. Of course, you don’t have to stick to the models in the instruction book, this kit is just begging for creative experimentation. Buy online at Amazon.
