 You can see the wheels turn, plus they're so portable---awesome October 6, 2008
J. Crews (Texas)
My son received these for his first birthday and they're probably the best toy he's ever received. He just turned two and still loves them. I keep them in the car all the time and he plays with them anytime we're at someone else's house, which is great because they're quiet and he's entertained by them for a long time. It's been fun to watch him do progressively more and more with them as he's gotten older. One thing, though--I do think that if he'd received them any younger, he would have put them in his mouth and ruined them. Twelve months was the right time to receive them. I noticed, however, that Melissa & Doug also make wooden nesting blocks, and that might be another way to go; they wouldn't be quite as light, of course, but I bet they're still a great toy.
They are starting to get a little beat up NOW, and I will buy a second set for my second son, but that's not bad for the amount of use we've gotten from a $10 toy.
 Not as durable as thy should be... August 27, 2008

They are cute, but would be nicer if they were made of wood (not paper and cardboard that bends and deteriorates...)
 Not the typical M&D quality August 6, 2008

We received these blocks as a gift about two weeks ago and we've already had to throw some blocks away. First of all, if your child chews on things, this is not the toy for you. My son has easily gnawed off bits of the blocks. Also, if the blocks are stepped on... they're not stong enough to withstand the weight entirely, but they are solid enough to hurt your childs feet. The outer covering also started peeling away on the top of the blocks. Bummer...
 Good in theory June 30, 2008
I bought this for my two year old daughter for Christmas. I just knew she would love it. I was wrong. She played with it for about 5 minutes, and hasn't touched it again since December. My four old tried to play with it, but the blocks are not made out of the most durable material.

These blocks are very cute, and my daughter loves playing with them. She is learning to stack and build. However, they are just made of cardboard and so they aren't very durable. We've only had them a few weeks and already one of them is ripped along the edge, and she has also chewed off a couple of corners. So if you're wanting a toy that will last through multiple children this is probably not it. They are cute though, and not a bad price,
