K’NEX Motorized Disney Ride Models. Dumbo and Space Mountain Options Available from $34.99–$99.99. Free shipping and returns.

As kids construct these replica Disney park rides, they’re also building their engineering skills, problem-solving ability, and imagination. Clear, illustrated instructions show kids how to piece together the hundreds of colorful pieces. Once assembled, a quartet of K’NEX characters (clad in Mickey Mouse gear, like real tourists) can hop aboard the rides for a spin. The motorized rides mimic the experience of the real event: Space Mountain zips past glowing planets and stars, while Dumbo-shaped cars spin and soar at increasing speeds. Kids can continue the realistic park experience by charging parents admission to their rooms.
