User Submitted Melissa & Doug Deluxe 50-piece Wooden ABC/123 Blocks Set Reviews (cont...)Date: 2005-08-18 Not what I expected My 1 year old daughter really enjoys stacking things. The blocks themselves are OK, but smaller than I expected. Date: 2005-08-15 Stay away if ur kid is used to throwing stuff I selected this one after reading the reviews here. Liked it very much till my son threw it on me and gave me a bump in my forehead. The blocks' corners are very sharp and it cut my forehead. Otherwise it is very nice. Date: 2005-04-03 These are the good kind All alphabet blocks are good, but these are much better than the Imaginarium brand ones. The MYKIDS brand blocks are good too, but the color contrast is better on these. The most crucial characteristic is that a block has different letters on opposite sides, so you have at least two of each letter. There are a lot of words you can't spell when you only have one of most letters, and even if you have enough sets of blocks to compensate, it's still unnecessarily many blocks to look through. And if you aren't spelling words yet, there's still the same-versus-different play, which is sabotaged when you don't have any same. Then there's the spatial-skills aspect: if you turn the H block one way you get the 8, another way you get the U, and so on. These have it right on all criteria. Date: 2005-02-16 Very Classic I love these blocks and they are actually going to be a decorating peice for our baby's room as well. I don't understand the complaints about how the pictures don't correspond. They never have. This set of blocks is the same as it always has been. If you want the letter to correspond buy some flash cards. I can't wait to play with these with my baby. Date: 2004-10-26 Toxic I bought these blocks for my child. She licked them and the colors came off. I think they should develop a saliva-proof coloring for their blocks. Also, the licking caused my child to be mocked in kindergarden due to the strange colors of her tongue. This tramatic experience has left her and our family scarred for life. I hate blocks. I'll buy more tomorrow. Good bye.
