Review on 80-Piece Edushape Wood-Like Soft Baby Blocks - Nurturing Imagination And Creativity For Babies And Toddlers by Chris Rob

Debated these because we already had magnatiles and duplos, and did we really need another building toy? Plus I wondered if these were too babyish for my soon to be three year old twins. So glad I got them.1. They require a different skill set because they don't lock in place by magnet or form. I watched the twins having to figure out why this long piece wouldn't stay up, and how to place supports, what pieces would balance in a tower, and why some shapes wouldn't fit.2. Allowed for more imagination.Pieces became houses, and then the house started to become a castle, and then it needed a walkway, and the walkway became the point and the castle went to a path they could balance on (pieces are sturdy.) Later circular pieces became wheels on a car. The car couldn't go anywhere since the wheels had no way to attach, but that didn't matter.4. All buildings must come down, sometimes accidentally, and sometimes with deliberate kicks. These blocks hurt neither each other nor my floors as they go.5. Plenty of blocks for the price. I saw both positives and negatives on this, but am mystified at what some could have been expecting. There were enough for both children to play happily. I suppose when they are old enough to build more complex structures this could change, but then I could just add to it.
