CyberCubes are just little magnets. 216 total in a basic package. After reading the reviews on Amazon.com, I just had to get them. And too my surprise, it was one of the best gifts they got this year. My youngest can’t put them down. They are so fun in fact, I actually had to order another, since I opened one of theirs and started playing with it! Now I am also hooked.

But CyberCube is not the only brand. All these little magnets are made in China and branded. Another quality brand is NeoCube. These are also sold on Amazon, also with free shipping.

I got the Black for me, Silver and Gold and another set of black ones for my sons.  I have to say, I really like the silver the best. Whichever you choose, it will be the best $30 you spent.  Hours of enjoyment. Read the reviews.

I had a hard time trying to find designs.  So, to help them get started, I created designs and shot pictures step by step so they could follow.  I included a printed version with each present.

Here are my CyberCube designs.  Enjoy.
