Pros: My daughter loved the squeaking chick, free bonus
Cons: Hard to clean, don't capture baby's attention, lousy to use as standard blocks

Pros: Great concept; cute animals; some blocks capture baby's attention; baby loves knocking them over.

Have you ever done something you knew you shouldn't? You'd been told that it wasn't a good idea, thought that it probably wasn't, but just had to find out for yourself? Yeah, I've done that - you see, I trust the opinions of ...

Pros: they look cute
Cons: they don't really do anything, don't stack too well

Back before my son was born, my sister and cousin threw me a baby shower. The gift my cousin gave me was a diaper cake. She had carefully made a 3 tiered cake of diapers. Decorating the cake was thick colorful ribbon and then lots of toys and baby ...

Pros: Animals. some neat manipulations
Cons: don't stack well, hard to work with

OK so the first set was OK to own, the second set I could deal with. Now the great in-laws have bought the animal blocks too! Yes, they have animals inside, some of them do interesting thinks like make noises or turn, if your child has the fine motor control to do that.

They stack, sort of. They will fall over if not put on the correct side or if not perfectly balanced. Not useful for building even if you have all the other sets.
