Melissa and Doug 60-Piece Standard Unit Blocks

Loved the blocks. Our 4 year old and 1 year old love them all the same. We were a bit worried about the blocks due to some of the reviews and their comments about the wood filler so we only ordered one set. After it arrived we inspected the blocks and were happy to discover they had no filler and very durable. With the free shipping and quality it was a great investment!

These blocks provided great "floor time" for grandfather and grandson. Granddad built and the 18 mo. old grandson knocked them over with a "blam". The blocks were smooth, heavy enough to be stacked, and varied enough to make many architectural combinations possible. The 18 mo. old spent great amounts of time stacking and restacking (and "blamming")the blocks. The storage box was also a great learning tool as our grandson tried many arrangements to get the blocks stored after playtime.

I bought this for my almost-4-year-old for Christmas. Both he and his dad enjoy playing with the blocks, and they are good and heavy. Amazon.com had the best price by far, with free shipping!

I purchased these blocks along with the Melissa and Doug architectural blocks for my 3-year-old son for Christmas 2008. He builds "roads" with these blocks and makes ramps by putting the storage box upside down and using the wedge blocks. The storage box upside down also works as a great building platform. The quality of these blocks meets my expectations. They are sanded very smooth and are durable for years and years of play. When my children are done playing with these, I am hoping to store them away for my grandchildren some day to also play with them.

Awesome sturdy, chunky, smooth wood blocks for kids to play with! We had different old blocks beforehand that we wanted to match, so we bought these - I love them more than our old ones, and want to get another set! This set comes with more than I thought it would, too.
Great deal!
