Montessori Stacking Toys 30Pcs Pyramids Stacking Blocks for Toddlers 2-5 Years, Preschool Learning Activity Sensory Toy, Teaching Tool, Party Favors, Birthday Gifts for Kids

I hadn’t seen this style of toy before, but I am so excited I got to give them a try. I’ve been using them for months now in my classroom, and my 4 and 5 year olds love to create unique towers and structures with these! I love to use a variety of building toys to help my kids learn about basic science and engineering as well as cooperation, determination, problem-solving, etc. My 2 year old also loves to play with them, too, though I do keep an eye on the little white pieces so they don’t become a choking hazard.

These blocks are always fun to play around with. This is a well made set and seems to be as good of quality as the other similar set that we have.  The pieces work together in many ways to let your creative imagination take over to create new structures.  This one also comes with a booklet with some ideas of creations you can build with this set.  These pieces are lightweight and easy to move around, but feel like they should be durable enough to withstand some typical child play.  The pieces are smooth and should not cause injuries with normal play.  I like that these pieces have some cute little designs on them that you only notice when looking closely or when the light hits them just right.  This set does not come with a base to set pieces in, but the pieces build nicely straight on the floor or table.  One thing you may want to get with these is a storage option, as it does not come with anything for that.  This is a fun set for children and would make a great gift.

My kid is not yet as excited about building and playing with these as he is knocking them over. Thankfully for both of us, I do like building with these and really like how they work together. The colors are great, everything is uniform so the builds go up easily and there are no weird fits.

Building blocks are generally, well, blocks. These are entirely different in that they are diamond shaped rings (technically a torus with a diamond cross-section) that can be stacked in a lot of unusual ways. The variety and the stability of the builds are the key attractions. You can start with a simple pyramid build and go on to create more complex shapes. There is also a book of suggestions included.While this is meant for children, people of all ages find them interesting. If they were smaller, they would make a great desktop fidget toy. Part of the learning experience is assembling the pieces in ways that are not strictly vertical or horizontal like you are constrained with blocks. A special education teacher introduced these to her students and after they played with them a bit, she showed how different things could be created using the angled nature of the shapes. This re-invigorated the students to do more with them.Many vendors offer versions of this product. In this case the pieces are made of hard plastic (probably ABS) which which has its pluses and minuses. Other sets I have reviewed are made of silicone with their own pluses and minuses. Which you choose is according to your need.

So I wasn't aware that there were so many possibilities with this set of blocks. This is definitely so much more interesting and creative than the typical cube blocks. Easy care and easy fun, gets the kiddos to sit tight for a little while on the high chair. Durable plastic, should last through a good amount of toddler (and young at heart adult) play as well. We keep ours in a zippered storage bag.

These are very nicely made. The material is nice, has a good weight to them and very symmetrical. It's very nice to have so many pieces to be able to make the many ideas provided in the booklet included. I really like the colors they come in and my daughter was very entertained, building many different shapes over and over again. The only thing I wish it included was a bag for them to be able to be put away. It's the only thing I will have to get myself, and they will not go back in the box unless you organize them to fit perfectly.

Exudes fantastic quality, and not just another "us too" set of pyramid stacking blocks: they have some extra welcomed-texture to their brightly-colorful surfaces. The build quality is at least as good as any others we've tried (and there are many sets! lol)...and the price is easily amongst the best I've found. The ONLY set I'd recommend above these is ones with a SLIGHTLY softened texture and material, but that is only a personal preference and to some, may not be desired at all.One thing of note: the "retail box" these came in had a picture depicting that many midsized blocks are translucent! I wasn't expecting to have any such blocks from when I studied the pics before ordering, but my children thought that 'feature' would be "soooo coool!!" but alas, all of the packaged blocks were solid colors. I felt I got exactly what I ordered, but the box offered somewhat of a letdown when the kids found a difference inside.All said, these are an EASY 5 star recommendation from us!!

This is such a cute stacking toy for toddlers and preschoolers. My 3 year old loves playing with it and surprisingly my 10 year old was quite enamored with it as well. I love the creativity that is involved beyond the standard block stacking toys. These seem to be very durable, my toddler has dropped and knocked over his creations and they are still perfect.
