When you think about children’s toys, there are the flash in the pan, flavor of the week toys and there are the classic toys that thrill kids from generation to generation. Parents embrace classic toys because they remind them of their childhood and they know they are a wise investment that will provide their child with years of fun. One of those classics is blocks. Blocks are so great because they are never the same toy twice and the possibilities are limited only by one’s own imagination.
Recently I had the chance to take a look at Lakeshore Learning’s Castle Blocks. TheseĀ enchanting hardwood blocks let kids create a fascinating fortress, spacious palace & more! TheĀ durable, stackable blocks come in 12 unique shapes & are printed on every side with a fun medieval themeāso kids can construct castles from all directions! They come in a set of Ā 60 blocks.
My kids loved them and have been playing with them since they arrived. Every day there is a different adventure that awaits them, new castles to build and conquer and battles to be won. This is the kind of creative play I like to see in my child, one that has them really thinking about what they are doing. I think with all the technology today, children need a balance or they will miss out on challenging their brains in a creative way.
The blocks are gorgeous, solid wood and decorated beautifully on all sides. They are a true heirloom toy to be handed down from generation to generation.
