The magic 'cube' puzzle that's better than a fidget spinner
Has your little one got into this yet? And why on EARTH is it called a cube? ๐ ๐
Chuck away your fidget spinners! The latest craze taking over little people's fingers is the rather oddly named Magic Cube Twist Speed Puzzle Toy: a spherical ball with different coloured mini-balls you need to flick and pop to move into position so they slot into matching coloured rings.
It's kind of like the classic 1980s Rubik's Cube - but not with stickers so you can't cheat (boo!!)
Basically, you push the balls down and move them around so they ALL end up in a hole that's surrounded by a ring matching the colour of the ball.
Simple, right?
We reckon it's got a bit more going for it than the regular fidget spinner, in that it has the (possibly infuriating) puzzle element to it, so you get a bit more for your money (perhaps, if you like puzzles that is) ?
