Review on 🧱 Melissa & Doug Building Blocks Set - 100 Wooden Blocks in 4 Vibrant Colors and 9 Diverse Shapes by James Mayfield

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not the best quality but kids love it

My 2 year old loves to fold things. I figured it was time to buy him a nice set of blocks. There are so many options here at Revain, but I chose this set purely because of the brand. I have to say that I am not that happy with the quality of the blocks. Many of them are poorly finished, and there are micro-cracks on the pair. Some of them are not smooth enough and easily tip over, which frustrates the baby. The box it comes in is not designed for storing blocks. We simply use an open basket for this. For all of these reasons, I came close to returning this set. However, my toddler (and 8 year old) plays with this set quite often. In the picture you can see the work of my 8 year old son. I think my little one will grow into it as he gets a little older and more creative with the details. It will be useful for teaching patterns, using dice as counters, etc. for other things related to these dice.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Unreliable
