LITE BRIX from CRA-Z-ART is an innovative building system that combines traditional brick building construction with the fun of LEDs! The light up bricks and connectors let kids "build with lights." Although you can make up stuff to build from any kit, the LITE BRIX themes include: Robots, Helicopters, Race Cars, Jet Fighters, Motorcycles, Space Shuttles, Lumi-Port Airport, Fire Rescue and Extreme City Buildings. The largest Extreme City Building kit lets you build 3 separate buildings, or combine all the BRIX into one 30” high building. Each set comes with a battery power pack that requires 4 AA’s for power. The power pack itself can be built right into the models. A neat feature is that LITE BRIX are compatible with other brick building systems on the market. So kids can add color and light to models they build by combining kits from different companies like Lego. It’s designed for children ages six (6) and up, but some early customer reviews online say it’s probably better for older kids because it’s a bit more complicated than some building kits. Kits range in price from about $20 to about $90. They’re available at big toy stores, and online at Amazon. Although Lite Brix was at Toy Fair at the Javits Center, I shot this video at Showstoppers in Vegas where they also had a huge display a month ago.
