 "An instant favorite in our house!" 2010-08-25
By J. Wood (Chicago Suburbs, IL)
These blocks were a gift for our twin boys, who started playing with them at about 6 months. Both boys instantly loved these blocks. They are easy to hold in small hands and the colors and shapes seem to be engaging. We have dozens of toys but this bucket of blocks are always the first thing either baby plays with. They are so drawn to them in fact, we used these blocks as stimulation to encourage the boys to sit up on their own for the first time by placing a couple at their feet, and now use them to entice crawling. While they are not anywhere close to actually sorting them through the appropriate holes, in the three months they've been playing with these, the red bucket and the lid are every bit as much fun as the blocks themselves. It is not uncommon to see each baby with a couple blocks or a piece of the bucket despite having countless other options for toys. As parents we love the shapes and colors and are constantly reinforcing both during play. I like that these can grow with the babies for a while. They started out just holding them, then teething with them, banging them together to make noise, now they put them into the bucket, eventually they can sort the shapes. Many of the toys we have been given have very short windows of appropriateness for babies, these blocks are certainly getting use throughout the first year of development and probably beyond. And while they probably would have enjoyed them earlier than about 6 months, they were best once they could sit unassisted, as occasionally someone would tip over onto a block and bonk a head. Once they were stable sitting the blocks were a hit!


 "His favorite toy!" 2010-08-20
By 'burgh mom
This is such an inexpensive, simple toy, yet it is hands down my 9 month old's favorite toy! If he starts crawling away from us all we have to do is put the blocks back in the bucket and shake it around and he just has to come over and dump them all out. He is starting to get that the pieces go in the holes, but mostly he just crawls around holding either the yellow lid or a block in each hand. He also loves to put the blocks into the little "slide" made for balls in another toy we have. Miraculously, with my son and 2 dogs, we have not lost a block yet!


 "Nonsensical design" 2010-08-19
By Andre S (NY, USA)
This item can easily earn an award for the worst design. Seriously, whereas FisherPrice has many nice products, they seem to design this one without any thinking. The flaw is that the lid doesn't snap, so the child just takes the it off and plays with this sorter as with a bucket. Why would anyone try to figure out the right hole if the blocks can be easily put in and out after removing the lid? As a sorter, this item is completely useless.


 "Loves to build towers and knock them down" 2010-08-09
By CHG (NE, OH USA)
This has been my 9.5 month old's favorite toy for about a month. Mommy and Daddy build towers and she crawls over to disassemble them--sometimes taking it apart block by block and other times knocking them over with vigor. Smiles everytime. A must have toy.


 "Cute and Functional Throwback" 2010-08-04
By Amanda (Madison, WI)
I remember playing with this same toy as a child and my son loves it. It's a good distraction to play with while I'm making meals and such as well as teaching shapes and spacial recognition. Plus, with the handle, it can be a fun pool/bath toy too!
