These are easy to hold but too large to fit in the mouth. Smooth with no corners or sharp edges. Best of all if you step on one they don't hurt your feet or break. Dishwasher safe and easy to sanitize. I expect these blocks to hold up to more then one kid and would be good for a day care or preschool. They seem to grow with your kids so they will hold interest from about 6 months to at least 4 years if not 6 for those who like to stack and build towers. While they don't snap together when stacked the bumps align and keep them together fairly well while still keeping them easy to handle for the one year old set. They will hold up to heavy chewers too, although some of the worst might make a dent or two.
Considering the safety issues and the quality these blocks are a great value too.

i am a big fan of green toys! if your child is over 1, buy two sets so there are a good number of blocks to build with. under 1 years old, one set will be suitable for the gnawing, throwing, clicking, banging, etc...that children will do.
these block DO attach together and you CAN build towers with them. the variety of different shaped blocks is good. and i ordered two sets and received two different color sets.
the colors aren't harsh like most baby toys, they aren't made in china, and they are a green product. i would much rather my child play with these than some chemical ridden, made in china set of blocks that will probably be recalled soon.

I bought these blocks for my 15 months old son. I choose these blocks over the other blocks available on the market because they are green and safe, which I feel is very important, especially in blocks who tend to be played a lot with.
So I really was excited when they arrived! The blocks have the perfect size and have nice colours, also there is enough variety in the shapes.
HOWEVER my big problem with them is that they don't stay together, if you put one block on top of the other they are not attached to each other in any way so they just fall off with the mildest push. So building anything is impossible.
Another problem is that you have to put the smaller blocks on top of the big blocks, the other way around doesn't work. So for example, you can't put 3 small blocks next to each other and than put a bigger block on top (it doesn't attach, you can't lift it).
So, these blocks work for small babies who like pushing things over and seeing things fall but if you are looking for blocks to build with, skip these (wish I had).

Needs a Redesign
These blocks are nothing but frustrating for me, and much more so for my toddler. I love many of the "Green Toys" products, but this one should have never made it out of the design... Read more

Great for all ages!
I bought these blocks for my 8-month-old at Christmas. She doesn't know how to stack them, but likes to put them in/out of a bucket and slap them together to make music. Read more

Nice but daughter became bored with them quickly
Appreciate the mission of the company and feel bad for dinging this product. Essentially, my daughter became bored with them on the first day. Read more

Like it but a little pricey for number of blocks
My son loves these blocks but at $26 (plus tax) for 18 blocks, I think it's a bit pricey. I'd much rather just have a pack of 50 and pay a lot more. Read more

Green toys that is not fun becomes a trash... not so green anymore.
I like the idea of the toy... recycled material, and it's a good message to pass onto our kids. But the kids don't lie if they like them as "toys" or not. Read more
