            My kids always enjoyed these blocks so we bought them for our granddaughter. She is only 15 months old, but is starting to stack them and build. In addition, grandma and grandpa love to build with them and it makes for a fun interactive time together.

              There were 40 blocks to put together. Once you figured out the first few they went together easily. It just takes alittle time. If they came preassembled the shipping container would be the size of a large trunk. Grandkids love the blocks sofar.

                  There is no other toy that we have had this long that is not broken and my kids still play with. I think we bought these 12 years ago. They use them with their hot wheels, building as tall as they will go, etc. They constantly revisit the bag of blocks. In fact, I am buying another set and my kids are 9, 11 and 14.

                    I remember playing with these growing up. We simply loved them and would play for hours. They seemed to last no matter what my sister, my brother, my two cousins and me would throw at them. And withstand our weights. I would recommand this to anyone who want to entertain toddler and young children. My brother loves them so much he has gotten them for his son who will be turning three this year.

                    It is great because it is easy to put together and they are lightweight so they won't hurt if they accidentally get thrown and hit somebody. My niece really loves them because they can be made taller than her.

                      Both my 6 month old nephew and my 1 year old niece love these. They are sturdy and big enough that I have fun building. They are light weight and durable enough to sustain all the damage the kids care to inflict. Even when my niece tosses one in the direction of my nephew they won't be dangerous like heavier wooden blocks. I imagine these will be a favorite for both of them for years to come, they are already a favorite of mine. The assembly took about a half hour, but I did it alone. With some help all 40 blocks could be put together in ten minutes or less, I'm sure.

                          my son has a lot of fun with these! They never get old! I often have an 8, 6, and 4 year old over, and they all enjoy stacking them up as high as possible! And of course knocking them down! Not too noisy when knocked down as they are only cardboard!
