DESCRIPTION: The Museum ABC Nesting Blocks introduces children to almost one hundred works of art, using the alphabet and a classic interactive format. Each block is devoted to three letters of the alphabet and three pictures illustrating that letter, allowing children to see how objects can be both the same and different in the eyes of various artists, cultures, and time periods. Stacking to three feet high, these sturdy blocks ìnestî within one another in a carrying box with a convenient rope handle. A fold-out insert provides details about each piece of art and its creator. While kids will enjoy the play value, adults will appreciate this virtual gallery of art spanning the centuries from around the world, including works by much-loved artists such as Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, Roy Lichtenstein, and Jacob Lawrence.

Non-stop entertainment,
This review is from: Museum ABC Nesting Blocks (Paperback)
My 12 mo. old loves LOVES these nesting blocks! Loves to nest them, stack them, carry them around. His favorite play thing and not just for the moment. He seems to never tire of them like he does almost every other toy. Highly recommended.

This review is from: Museum ABC Nesting Blocks (Paperback)
My 17 month old son enjoys taking all of the blocks out of the box, putting them back in, stacking and then knocking them over. He isn't too interested in the pictures, yet, but I'm sure they'll become a great ABC and art teaching tool as he grows. They also work as great "garages" or hiding places for his cars & trucks. Very open-ended toy w/ lots of possibilities for play. I also gave these blocks to several of our young friends for Christmas, and they seemed to be a big hit.

This review is from: Museum ABC Nesting Blocks (Paperback)
My 15-month-old daughter has been using these blocks for a few months and she enjoys toting around the box, taking them out of the box, and knocking down the blocks. She is not old enough to understand the alphabet or appreciate the imagery, but the quality of the blocks is satisfactory. While there are other blocks that offer a better variety of age-appropriate learning tools - have number, color and animal imagery, I think these can be props for art education in the future.
