40-Piece Deluxe Jumbo Cardboard Blocks

My kids love these. They're fun the only downside is that in a pack of 40 blocks only 8 are the big red ones, 8 are the big blue ones, and 24 small yellow blocks. I would love the option to be able to buy just red blocks. We'd love more of those but I don't react to buy another package just to end up with only 8 red blocks and another 24 yellows. Still a great toy and glad we have them!

Many moons ago, when I was knee high to a grasshopper, my public library had a set of blocks very similar to these. I always, always, always had to play with them during our visits. They unlocked so much creativity and imagination within me. I tried looking for these blocks over the years out of pure nostalgia. I'm happy to find that Melissa & Doug make them! I recently bought a set for my 6yo daughter. I can not wait to see what she makes of these.

I bought these for my daughter four years ago and the her imagination soars when she plays with these. She has built forts, cities, singing stage, airports, castles, barns, bridges, etc. At 7 years old she is still playing with them and asking that I buy her more! Yes, after 4 years, they are still holding up!

We bought these blocks for our three children when they were about 5-7 years old. 15 years later, our fourth child (7 years old) is still playing with the blocks! He loves to build bridges, forts, walls, towers, and whatever else he can imagine...and he's asking for a second set. The only down side is storage for the blocks but we bought a large plastic bin and it works well enough. There is NO reason NOT to give your child these blocks and unlock their imagination!

There are plenty of block for creative endeavors. My 6,4, and 1-1/2 year old grandchildren were able to enjoy sharing and building together. I think the building/stacking process is not only great fun, but develops good skills. The blocks arrived flat and were folded into block form easily. A Classic toy.
