I had something similar when I was little and I loved it. Can be used for more than just stacking and nesting. Mar 11, 2024

My daughter loves stacking these and the nesting function, my only complaint is they are cardboard and bend and rip easy. May 02, 2023
Too easy to damage during rough play. Can’t get wet or handle getting smushed. Dec 12, 2022

I love that these blocks don’t take up much room and go inside one another but they are poorly made. The blocks are not very durable, within 20 minutes of opening the blocks one had already broke. Oct 31, 2022

Love these but if you have a destructive little one these do break easily. They are light weight and don’t hurt when they fall on you but if you fall on them they don’t survive. Oct 12, 2022

We have gotten a lot of use out of these stacking blocks. I wish they were not made out of cardboard because they definitely are showing their wear but it keeps the kids busy for hours. Mar 13, 2022

One of my toddler's favorites! She loves stacking these, naming the colors and animals, and then knocking them over! The only downside is that she peeled off the stickers on some of them. Mar 07, 2022

I think these blocks are so cute. They are fun for building but also help practice letters. My only complaint is that they are cardboard and can break pretty easily, especially if handled by toddlers Jan 25, 2022

Very simple, but both my girls found hours and hours of entertainment out of these. They are just coated cardboard, so not very durable. Dec 22, 2020

My daughter started showing interest in these blocks and loves them at 2 1/2. She needs some help putting them in the right order to build a tower, but she loves playing together with an adult. Nov 29, 2020

It's a cute set but not sturdy enough to last through kids, especially those who are rough on toy. I kind of wish they were made of wood I stead of thick cardboard. Jan 02, 2020

These blocks are great for all ages and are easy ago stack. Can be used for stacking, putting things in, and just being creative. They are cardboard so not recommended for knowing on. Dec 29, 2019

I thought that being cardboard they would break immediately but after about 10 months the only wear and tear is on the carrying box and the “Z” block has lost a sticker. Very happy. Aug 15, 2021

My son loved these blocks! However they weren't very durable and some of the larger ones broke after being used a few times. Mar 04, 2020

Fun and colorful, but cardboard and not very durable. Ours tore and broke long ago. If your kids are tough on toys - avoid. Mar 25, 2019

My daughter loved playing with these but the quality doesn’t hold up well with a lot of use. Since they are cardboard material they get bent up pretty easily between my 4yo DD and 2 yo nephew Jan 21, 2019

Our blocks are well loved and look well loved. My two year old enjoys stacking these blocks over and over. I wish they were sturdier as they are beginning to come apart and will not last very long. Jun 22, 2018

These are fun for multiple ages. The colors and characters are fun as well. Cardboard does show wear over time. Dec 12, 2017

We loved these blocks, but because they were cardboard they didn't last very long. They are a blast though and I wish they would have lasted longer. They were the most played with toy for quitea while Feb 20, 2017

My daughter is learning about stacking and such but I don't like the material they are made out of. She likes gumming them and it's not the best material for that. Not the best craftsmanship either. Jan 30, 2016

Used these with my 2 year old and he ended up chewing through the cardboard. Melissa and Doug is an amazing company and sent a replacement right away. He loved trying to stack them all! Dec 23, 2015
