Meccano

The Meccano brand offers toys for children that will help them understand the world around them. Meccano is a name that brings back many memories for all generations. Recognizable at first glance as a timeless brand, this classic construction system has always managed to keep abreast of current day trends and will give all members of the family hours of nostalgic fun and amusement.

Meccano provides great toys for boys and girls who like to build things. Meccano sets provide two fold play options. These reusable building systems allow children to design and construct moveable gadgets and vehicles. Kids can spend hours making cars, cranes, and battle machines or they can combine sets to come up with cool new inventions. After construction has been completed, they can use their new creations for other play scenarios.

Although Meccano is known for its metal toys geared towards older children, they have begun providing building sets for a younger crowd. Recently Meccano introduced toys that children as young as four can play with. Kids can start crafting simple buggies, bulldozer and flying apparatuses. In order to insure safety, these kits are made of plastic. These toys are also simpler and have larger nuts and bolts which does make it easier for four and five year olds to manipulate. As they grow, kids can practice following directions and transition to the metal sets when they are old enough.

Over the years, it has been the notion that those who played with Meccano sets were mostly boys. Girls have also enjoyed building with these sets. As it became more widely known that girls enjoy construction kits as much as boys do, there have adjustments made to the product design. Pinks and purples have been introduced as colours to the plastic line of toys.
