Needs improvement

Was given these blocks as a gift for my 2 year old, couldn't wait to open the box and get building but unfortunately on opening every other block is stuck together. Some can be pulled apart although this removes some paint but others are actually stuck too hard together. Quite disappointing as expected better quality.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We love blocks, and these looked like a sure bet for keeping at Grannie's house. They are small and heavily painted, and therefore, a bit slippery. But NO rough edges. The colors are bright primaries and there ARE 100 of them so lots of ways to play with them. You can make mosaic designs, teetering towers, fields for your small Unicorn collection, or play architect and make rooms upon rooms for your Fisher Price people (if you have any left) or your LEGO people (If you can find them in that huge box). I wish they were a bit bigger and not so apt to slide off/fall once the tower is crowned; you need time to be proud of your creation before it collapses! Or maybe it's is just my old, uneven-floored house? Four-year-old granddaughter is warming up to them, which is her style, but her 6-yr old sister loves arranging them. The biggest thing is, they are a little hard to clean up fast: they slip out of your hand. But it's ok. Make it a game, pretend you are done and your child will be happy to point out you still have to clean up the blocks! They come in a good-sized heavy M&D cardboard box so you should not have to see a 1" triangle ANYwhere.

A Favorite In This House!

My son received these as a Christmas gift from his grandparents. He was still a little young, so we put them away till he was about 18 months old. He and my 3 year old love to play with them. My son is Autistic and one thing he loves to do is build. He will sit with these for a good while before getting bored. My daughter uses them more imaginatively, sometimes pretending they are food items. She also likes to build, towers and castles.
Pros: Colorful, Creative, Durable, Fun
I would recommend this to a friend!

Nice blocks, not quite the size expected

My daughter really loves building with these blocks. The possibilities are really endless, we build houses, playgrounds, obstacle courses and many other things for her toys. However, these were bought to add on to the blocks in the Unit Blocks on Wheels which we had first. Since they were the same shapes as those blocks I had assumed they would be the same size as well, but they are significantly smaller. I was disappointed by this, but we still like them. It would be nice to be able to add to the collection from her wagon though without having to buy another wagon set.
Pros: Durable, Entertaining, Fun, Interactive
Cons: Poor Design
I would recommend this to a friend!

While this is for a gift that has not been given yet, the looks of it is very good quality materials. I know it will be played with lots of times and will be able to withstand it.

These do not really fit together, which makes them different from what I want them to be. Having said that, they are a great value and are incredible in every way for what they are. If they 'nested' better, they would be more entertaining or useful to my 2.5 year old, she wants to build a BIG structure and then knock it down...
Pros: Durable, Easy Assembly, Entertaining, Fun, Great Value, Interactive
I would recommend this to a friend!

Children can have fun and also learn with these blocks.

My grandson asked for blocks for his 5th birthday. I gave him this set, and he loves them. His sister, who will turn 7 in July, enjoys them too. They like to build things, and then he knocks them down. When he is alone he separates them and lines them up by color before counting each row. I told him we will practice counting until he can count to 100. He already counts to 40, but then he is tired and just says "100" so that he can quit . Many educational opportunities present themselves with this set of blocks. A little guidance can stimulate children's thinking and help develop their minds.

Toddlers love to stack things on top of each other. This set gives them many different configurations for long playtime and helps develop their motor skills.
