Great First Blocks, but they won't last.4
I might have rated these blocks lower, but I got them for a fantastic deal before Christmas last year. As such, they have paid for themselves countless times over. The blocks are a good size, no choking risk, and the wagon is fantastic to store them in. My 10 month old has been playing with these since about 6 months (mostly banging them together). That being said, they do show dents/wear rather quickly. When he is older and building with them more, we will get a higher quality set.

A classic, durable and versatile toy.4
I bought this for my 3-year old nephew. He loves the blocks & his 18-month old brother loves to pull the wagon along. A classic, durable and versatile toy.

Encourages Creativity5
My great-grandson loves these blocks...he builds towers and other structures then knocks them down and starts all over again. He's just over 2 years old. He enjoys putting them in the wagon and pulling them around. In this age of 'entertaining' electronics, remote-controlled toys, talking toys, it's great to see a child using his own creativity to build something, learn shapes, see how they fit into the little wagon, etc. Both his parents and I give this generations-old toy an A+

Product Description

36 smoothly sanded wooden blocks for unlimited building possibilities; which store neatly in a sturdy pull-along cart!

My godson loves it. 4
I bought this for my godson's 2nd birthday. It's durable so he can't break it. Now he's also talking more.

Pretty good!4
We wanted to purchase more traditional toys for our daughter for christmas 06. We bought a lot of M&D toys and this by far was the better of their toys. Even though our daughter is still a little young to put pieces together properly it will be even better when she figures this out. Like other said the sound is very appropriate. I like this toy and definitely recommend this to others. The only reason I gave it a 4 is colors on blocks could be a bit brighter or more colorful.

Great toy3
I think this is a great toy, but at this point my sons aren't too interested in it. The pictures to match up and the sound that results are very clear, the two puzzle pieces are easy to manage, and it doesn't take up a lot of room. Also the noise it makes when you match up the pieces is at an appropriate level.

Product Description

Excellent learning toys5
This blocks are so colorfull and durable and the shapes help to be more creative...excellent learning blocks What I wish I'd known prior to purchase is the dimensions of the blocks. They are smaller and thinner than I had anticipated. That being said, their size has not diminished my grandson's enjoyment one iota. He likes to build roads with the blocks and can't wait to build the castle pictured on the box the blocks came in.

Grandson LOVES these blocks!!4
My 4 year old grandson, and his parents, were thrilled when he receieved these blocks yesterday. We'd been unable to find colored wooden blocks in any local stores. I was happy to see that the yellow blocks were just as vibrant as the red and blue. In the picture I saw they looked rather pale. (As soon as we can find a time when his little sister isn't around to knock it down, that is.)

Product Description

Kids can use their creativity and imagination to build all sorts of things with this 100-piece set. The structures are only as tall and wide as the child's imagination! With endless possibilities, it's sure to provide hours of engaged play.
