Would a child with weak fingers be able to do this? (My son has hypermobile joints. ) Thanks in advance!

I think it might be a little difficult for him to be honest as sometimes quite a bit of strengh is needed to join the pieces together. Discussed it with the Dad of the child I bought this gift fof and he was in agreement.

Is this compatible with the normal Knex

No unfortunately its not the pieces are a lot bigger on this and much more malleable
