Provided are a clip system and method for joining plates using the system of clips, with each clip including a base, a first protrusion, a second protrusion, a first pair of fingers, and a second pair of fingers, with the first protrusion and the second protrusion extending in opposite directions away from the base.

A building block system includes a block body having four side faces offset 90 degrees from an adjacent side face and having a side edge intermediate adjacent side faces. The block body includes a top face perpendicular to the side faces and a bottom face opposite and parallel to the top face that is perpendicular to the four side faces, the top and bottom faces having a plurality of upper and lower edges, respectively, intermediate the four side faces, respectively. The system includes a plurality of receiver members, a single receiver member being positioned on a respective the side edge and on a respective the upper edge and on a respective the bottom edge. The system includes a plurality of connector members positioned intermediate the plurality of receiver members, respectively. Each receiver member has a configuration operable to receive a respective connector member in a locking engagement.

A building block mount for detachable attachment to a building block, the building block comprising an outer peripheral wall and an external anchoring means formed on the outer peripheral wall; wherein the mount comprises a mounting periphery and an attachment means for detachably attaching or clamping the mounting periphery onto the building block; wherein the mounting periphery comprises a peripheral wall having an inner peripheral surface and an outer peripheral surface, and internal anchoring means on the inner peripheral surface; wherein the inner peripheral surface is to enter into abutment contact with the outer peripheral wall of the building block and the internal anchoring means is to enter into coupled engagement with the external anchoring means of the building block when the mount is attached onto the building block, whereby a relative position between the mount and the building block is fixed and maintained; and wherein external connection means for making snap connection with a snap connection means of an external building blocks or snap connection means of a plurality of external building blocks is formed on an outer surface of the mount or on the outer peripheral surface.

A chain-shaped splicing toy is attached to a ball so that a plurality of balls can be spliced with each other. The chain-shaped splicing toy includes a first chain assembly. The first chain assembly has two first coupling portions, a first ring, two first buckling portions, and a plurality of first chain connecting portions. Wherein, when the first chain assembly is attached to the ball, the first coupling portion at one end is coupled to the first ring at the other end. The first buckling portions are buckled to the first coupling portion that is not located at one end of another first chain assembly attached to the other ball so that the balls can be spliced with each other in different shapes and models.

A toy construction set comprising operatively interconnectable blocks and connectors. Each of the blocks has one or more apertures formed in relief Each of the connectors has a base in the form of a plate or rod and a plurality of pins attached to the base in a spaced apart arrangement for interconnecting blocks. The pins are integral with the base plate. The interconnection between a block and a connector is achieved by the pins being positively engaging and releasably retained within one or more of the apertures of the blocks. The pins are oppositely disposed of a base plate so that a block can be connected to a connector on one side of the base plate, and another block can be connected to the same connector on the other side of the plate.

Most children's construction sets fail when to comes to providing children with a fast and easy way to build large structures, such as houses and forts. They fail because the methods they use to connect the pieces of the set are not feasible, don't enable the children to build large structure, or quickly damage the pieces themselves. This application represents years of refinement to produce a novel turn-key design that makes it very easy for children to build such structuresor any other large objects they can imagine. The novelty of this approach includes a slotted Connecting Element that users can slip between cutout made in the edges of Planar Elements. The user inserts the Connecting Element, lines up the slots on the element with the edges of two adjacent Planar Elements, and then rotates the Connecting Element approximately 90 degrees to connect said Planar Elements using friction and compression.

A magnetic plate toy includes a first plate, a second plate, and a connector. The first plate and the second plate are disposed to oppose each other. The connector extends in an opposing direction of the first plate and the second plate and connects the first plate and the second plate to each other. The first plate includes a first plate member and a plurality of first magnets provided inside the first plate member. The second plate includes a second plate member and a plurality of second magnets provided inside the second plate member to correspond to the plurality of first magnets. The second plate is connected to the connector to be rotatable around the opposing direction as a rotation axis direction.
