積木組

My 3-year-old has been working through the stage-based activity cards on her own, and it's wild how fast she went from stacking to actually planning out little structures. The wood has a nice weight to it, no splinters, and the pieces fit together without sliding apart.

The 70 pieces are chunkier than I expected, which means my 2-year-old can actually stack them without them toppling every two seconds. We've only gotten through a handful of the 20+ activity cards so far, but the sorting games alone have kept her busy for a solid half hour at a time.

My 4-year-old has been working through the stage-based activities on her own, and the 70 pieces are sturdy enough that they've survived being stacked, dropped, and used as a pretend zoo. I like that the blocks all fit together so there's no wrong way to build.
