 Basic blocksFeb 10, 2012
By Growing Harris Family
I bought these for our 14-month old and nearly 3-year old. I was debating between a couple sets of these, the $20 100-piece set of smaller blocks, and the $50 60-piece unit block set all by Melissa and Doug. I went with this set, thinking I could add another set if the boys really like them.
I opened them today and was disappointed to see that the column-shaped pieces are actually flat on one side. I'm also disappointed that the pieces are lightweight. (The lighter weight will be nice since they won't hurt anyone should they be thrown!) They feel cheap and there was an odor--I'm guessing it was the paint.
I like that they are the larger size, but I don't think they are standard unit blocks. My son enjoys standing the pieces up but doesn't try to build anything. We tried "making people", and there was only enough half circles to make one head, so we had a headless boy and a cute girl with a triangle tunic. There weren't many blocks left over--with the set we borrowed from a friend, we easily made several people and built a "road" for the friends to walk down together.
If I were to do this again, I would wait and purchase the larger unit block set since it's a main-stay in preschool and kindergarten classrooms. I think they would be heavier and easier for building larger and stronger structures and easier for our littlest one to use.
These will work fine, but I won't be buying a second set!

fun blocks but the wagon is the hitJan 07, 2009
By heather masar
These blocks and the wooden 'wagon' are very well made. My 2 yr old likes to pull the little wagon around more then play with the blocks. But they are a really nice set of blocks. I would recommend these.

Nice, but I wish there were moreMay 28, 2010
By Ashlee
These blocks are nicely made, and my daughter enjoys them for the most part. I was really looking for a wagon of blocks like I had when I was young, and this one is no match for it. My wagon had three times as many blocks that were nice and big for building big "castles." These are small, and one cannot build too much with them. There aren't enough blocks for a good base.

 Blocks on the go!Jan 04, 2010
By Toddler's Mom
"CR"
I bought this for my 18 month old son and we both love it! He can sit and play with the blocks for about 30 minutes straight building towers. He then puts the blocks in the the box (not in order) and pulls it along. He loves to run with it and when the blocks fall out he laughs and puts the blocks back in and runs again. It has given him tons of hours of fun and laughter! Great toy even at an earlier age!

Blocks in a box is a great ideaJan 10, 2009
By Pamela S. Murray
"S.Jordan"
I bought these for my two year old,we both love them. There are endless opertunities for playing while learning.At home we practice our colors,our counting,and our shapes. We even practice our puzzle skills just by trying to fit them back in the box.These blocks can be pulled inside or out and they are light enough to fit in a child's backpack. My duoghter and I are very happy with aii of our Melissa and Greg pursaches.
