BIG: For Little Hands and First Creations
BIG Picture Puzzles: A Little “I Did It!” Moment
Ages 3+ | A visual introduction to building
A yellow duck, a rainbow, or a house with a red roof—which will they choose first?
Children place BIG pieces directly on top of the picture cards, matching
the printed colors an
d shapes and connecting them as they go. They can see exactly where each piece belongs, making this a lovely starting point for young builders.
With 60 BIG pieces and eight double-sided cards, there are 16 pictures to explore. Once connected, their creation can be lifted off the card.
BIG Storage Box: Let Their Imagination Lead
Ages 1+ | Open-ended play for little builders
There’s no set model to finish here. Children can explore the colors, practice connecting pieces, and gradually start making creations of their own.
With 200 BIG pieces, two baseplates, and an activity booklet, there’s room for towers, funny animals, little houses—or something only your child can explain.
We’d choose this for free play that grows with their ideas, with plenty to share when someone joins in.
BIG Moominvalley: Build First, Tell Stories Next
Ages 3+ | Guided building and character play
For a little Moomin fan, we’d choose a gift that brings familiar stories into their hands.
The set includes 120 BIG pieces, two baseplates, and step-by-step instructions for the Moominhouse and characters including Moomintroll and Little My.
Once built, the storytelling begins. Who’s visiting the house? Where is Little My going? A good choice for children who enjoy giving their creations a life of their own.
Plus-Plus: Their Own Ideas or a New Challenge?
Travel Case: Imagination on the Go
Ages 5+ | Open-ended building wherever they go
For the Plus-Plus fan with a head full of ideas, the Travel Case means their favorite Plus-Plus can come along wherever they go.
With plenty of Plus-Plus inside, children can build whatever interests them—at a restaurant, visiting family, or sitting at the kitchen table. A handy screen-free option for keeping little hands and imaginations busy.
When it’s time to leave, pack everything into the case, ready for the next outing.
Storage Box: More Pieces for Bigger Ideas
Ages 5+ | Open-ended building on a larger scale
For the child who keeps asking for more Plus-Plus, a Storage Box gives their imagination more to work with.
Choose from 2,000 to 4,000 pieces, with colors and accessories varying by box. The featured 4,000-piece box includes 20 baseplates and 40 wheels for inventing vehicles, building towns, or creating something entirely unexpected.
The strength is the freedom: children choose the project, change it, and build something new. There’s also plenty for friends and siblings to join in.

Space Superset: For Builders Who Love a Challenge
Ages 7+ | More advanced building for curious space fans
For a child fascinated by space who enjoys concentrating on a project, this would be our choice.
With 1,000 Plus-Plus pieces, baseplates, wheels, and hubs, they can follow step-by-step guides to build rockets, planets, astronauts, aliens, and satellites in 2D and 3D.
The more advanced models offer a fun building challenge. Afterward, children can use what they’ve learned to invent their own rover or plan the next space mission.
KÆMPE: Make Room for Big Ideas
KÆMPE Signature Pack: Build Big Together
Ages 3+ | Active play and shared building
For a larger gift that siblings can share, we’d put KÆMPE on the list.
The pack includes 15 oversized pieces in five colors, each measuring 29 cm long. Try a tower, a large animal, or a domino run across the floor.
Children move around their creations, carry pieces into position, and work together on what comes next. Just clear a little space before the wrapping paper comes off.
Which One Would We Choose?
A little help getting started? BIG Picture Puzzles.
Freedom to invent? A Travel Case or Storage Box.
A satisfying challenge? The Space Superset.
A big project together? KÆMPE.
Whatever they build first, those same pieces are ready for their next idea.
