My kids loved these blocks so I bought again for grandson and he loves them too. They are even more substantial than a generation ago and a timeless form of energy expenditure.

A must have for kids. Endless fun building and smashing towers. Kind of a hassle to assemble the bricks, but it can go faster once you get the hang of it. Still worth it.
Lots of fun!

I purchased these blocks about 10 years ago, when my kids were toddlers. They are now 15 and 12 years old and these blocks are still around. Over the years, they used them in countless ways, including as towers for lego guys, a play area for a pet hamster, forts for indoor snowball fights, and as doll beds. I was always amazed at how my kids would integrate them in with other toys. These blocks fostered so much true childhood "play." My kids would likely agree that these blocks were one of their favorite toys.
** Note that my kids never walked on these blocks. My quality rating is based off of how they used them.

They are not durable, would be damaged if toddlers stepped on them.

The blocks are cute but they are only cardboard and $19.99 is overpriced but I needed them for a project.

Blocks were for grandchildren and were an instant hit. One of the few toys they use consistently. Only critique is that there are too few of the larger red and blue blocks. This set was actually purchased to supplement a 40 piece set purchased at Christmas, since the red and blue cannot be purchased separately. We put the bigger blocks together and left the yellow ones languishing in the box doomed to be forever flat.
Great for developing large-motor skills!

My kids are 11, 6, 5, and 2 (3 oldest are boys and youngest is a girl). We have had these for 3 years, replacing some blocks occasionally. They LOVE them! They are perfect for all ages if you want to encourage their imagination. An excellent gift for grandkids (we got them from their grandparents and uncle).
A great addition to the play area

My husband and I bought the blocks as a first birthday gift for our twin granddaughters. We don't see them use the blocks on a daily basis, but as reported by their parents, the girls have enjoyed both building with the blocks and knocking them down. On one occasion one twin was clever enough to build a stairway with the blocks so she could access an "off limits" area. A toy that truly sparks imagination. We're glad that these blocks are still around.
