What our experts think

There is a reason why wooden building blocks are a classic, and it is because the benefits are endless. Our testers were able to experiment with gravitational limitations while also engaging in dramatic play during creation of various structures or stacking tall towers using the different shapes and sizes included within this wooden block set. Repeat play was plentiful, and our testers were observed to return to this toy on numerous occasions to explore and create different imagined designs or simply stack and knock over the blocks. While engaging with this toy, visual spatial skills are honed, fine motor skills are strengthened, and eye-hand coordination skills are sharpened. This product is the perfect addition to any home or preschool, and is beneficial for independent, partner, or small-group play.
