Product Description

This Mahogany Discovery Set is a great way to get to know the awesome world of Tegu blocks. The set includes 26 blocks in three shapes: 12 cubes, 10 long planks, and 4 short planks. The blocks come in a natural finish, and magnetic connections between the blocks make for surprising play that defies gravity and flexes a child's creative freedom. Few woods can top the richness and warmth of Mahogany. As a special gift or the coolest office desk toy, this one's a keeper. Tegu is a pioneering wooden toy company designing products that unleash the power of little imaginations. Introducing eco-friendly building blocks magically attracted by magnets, Tegu has unveiled the first wooden toys ever created to defy gravity. But, it gets better: building their own manufacturing plant in Honduras, Tegu is realizing a dual goal of creating dozens of jobs for men and women while working to replenish a sadly abused rainforest. Ages 3+ | Warning: This product contains magnets. Swallowed magnets can cause complications leading to serious infections and death. Seek immediate medical attention if magnets are swallowed or inhaled.

I bought this as a birthday present for my 5 year old son and he absolutely loved them! I was shocked to see how great of quality the blocks were made out of and the magnets are extremely strong! He loves the ability to be able to twist and turn the blocks to defy gravity! Now instead of watching TV and playing video games he simply cannot put down these blocks, its almost as if he is creating instead of playing and loves creating scenes and imagining himself flying a helicopter and all other sorts of things. I'm extremely impressed with how creative he has become, thanks Tegu!

Got this for my nephew turning 3. My own kids and all of the nieces and nephews (age range 4 to 13) all got drawn into playing with the blocks. The magnets are strong and work really well.
