The Big Bad Wolf has nothing on these sturdy cardboard blocks. They're easy to assemble, and they're lightweight so even the youngest builders can construct their dream home. Bright colors mean endless combinations. Blocks come in several different sizes. Includes 40 blocks.

Self promotion on each block is ridiculous and detracts from item
On each block a 3" long and 1 1/2" tall section of the brick-like design is disrupted by a the following advertisement.
"Comments? [...]
Mellisa & Doug"

This is way over the top and frankly visually obtrusive. I hope others don't purchase this item because of this intrusive advertising.

PS. It will take you about 2 hours to assemble the 40 blocks in the package.

A Year Later: 1 Block Crushed; 39 Used Daily
I purchased these blocks for my 2 and 4 year old kids 12 months ago. In addition to their intended use as building material, the blocks are used daily as missiles, step stools, and hammers. All of the blocks are battle scarred, but only 1 has been destroyed (and it required getting run over by a bicycle to crush it). If you want to keep the kids occupied with a creative and rugged diversion, these blocks are for you.

A minor criticism: the color fades from the small yellow blocks on exposure to sunlight.

A good purchase!
My grandkids, just 3 and under 2, love these big blocks. They're a nice change from wood blocks. They're easy and fun to stack, and this set has enough to keep them busy. For serious building I'd buy another set. The kids throw them and knock them down, but the blocks are amazingly durable. A few were dented when one of the kids stood on them, but not badly. We're all happy with the purchase.
