I have seen kids playing with the rectangular wooden blocks. Similar to set of Lego toys which keep the kids busy. It appears to be very costly, and many a times I forget the name of these toys. Finally when I saw it on Flipkart (Indian Online Shopping) platform, I ordered one for my kid.
These toys are super fun play items for kids above 5 years of age. Set them up in a row or make different shapes, then push one, to watch the tumbling falling wooden pieces one after the another. It is like chain effect of the dominoes tumbling over like a race.
After waiting for 2 weeks finally, I receive them today. I thought it would be packaged in box but on opening the brown carton, we found there were no packaging done, and item was wrapped under the transparent plastic.
The packaging has 120 pcs colourful, wooden blocks. Each of the pieces were smooth and polished and doesn't seems to harm the kids. They looks perfect to play with. The set contains 12 differnt colours and 10 pieces of each colours. There were option of getting more blocks, but for a starter I begin with 120 blocks.
As soon as I open pack, I made sure to check any damages on any blocks. All pieces are of same sizes shape. It allows to make large and solid structure, which keeps the kids busy with their imagination and focus on making a good structure. I find these toys more effective as compared to letting them hooked to mobile screen.
Playing with this building blocks, allows the kids to concentrate and also help them to develop sense of creativity. My kids get excited at first, without knowing it's usage, she started to put the blocks randomly.
Then I showed her YouTube video, how things are done with the building blocks. She grasped it quickly and after a good amount of time, started making like the one she watched in video. A round shape ...structure, with each colour one after the another precisely.
It was a good try, and 8bfpund each of the blocks were perfectly places to form a better chain effect on tumbling one in the begining.
Finally, she was excited to start the chain effect. She pushed the first one , however it was not success and only 2 blocks fallen. Then I asked her to push again and she did, watching each of thr blocks randomly...in a synchronized way.
She was super thrilled to watch the fallen blocks. And I am happy to find a new playi toy for my kids. For sure she would be busy with the different colours and won't spend time watching mobile or playing unnecessary games. For sure I would be more interested to see her creativity style with these blocks. Gradually she would be great in making different syructure.
