Pros: Fun, imaginative toy. Sturdy. Cons: Not easy for little ones to recreate buildings. Not enough logs.
This review is late entry to the K&F Toys Write Off sponsored by Jenni1396. I really did try to publish earlier but between Epinions system being slow, and guests in town that keep me from computing...well...enough excuses. Here's the review...

Pros: Promotes Creativity and Good Old-Fashioned Fun. Cons: some pieces may get lost, choking hazard for youngest of kids.
I'm finally back from my vacation and am happy to be home. Don't get me wrong, I liked the vacation a lot. I spent everyday swimming and fishing in Lake Superior and the Ontonagon River. To me it couldn't get any better but like Dorothy says in the...
Pros: Long time favorite; allows creative use of play time without electronics; uses real wooden logs; can use container for storage; classic since 1916 Cons: Never seems to be enough pieces; other than logs, pieces are plastic
With all the electronic hand-held games, computer games, Play Stations, and high-tech world we live in, it is nice to let your kids take a step back and play a game that uses their hands and creativity without beeps and dings, batteries or plugs. ...
Let's flashback real quick to Christmas 1980. I was 6 years old, and being an only child at the time Christmas meant WAY to many presents for one child. I remember my favorite gift that year, it was my good ol' Lincoln Logs. I loved these things. As...
Pros: Use creativity, very durable and fun Cons: Not easy for the very young, Fewer options than some block sets such as Legos
I remember using so much imagination when I was a kid. I did watch television at times, but most of my time was spent on other pursuits. Often I could be found playing with my Tinker Toys or Lincoln Logs. While I do think Tinker Toys allow for a...
Pros: Encourage creative play; fun for both girls and boys Cons: Expensive but worth it.
Of all the toys I played with while growing up, my favorite memories are the Lincoln Logs that made it through 5 moves and 4 children. We built frontier towns that meandered through our bedrooms and out into the hall. My sister and I built multi-room...
Pros: kids love it, stimulates imagination, durable Cons: lots of pieces
Our home is filled with traditional toys. Yes, we do have a few fad toys, such as a Buzz Lightyear, but mostly we choose toys which children have enjoyed through the years. Although my five year old’s favorite is his train set and it’s hard for other...
Pros: hours of fun, not messy, safe Cons: none I can think of
I love the lincoln logs. 20 years ago when I was a kid my parents bought me a lincoln log fort set. I loved to build the huts. It was so much fun constructing the huts with the wooden beams with groves engraved, interlacing them together and placing...
My brother is known for his love of Old-fashioned toys. He doesn't believe in batteries, and any toy that makes a noise, to him, is sinful. You must understand that my brother is unmarried, childless and very set in his ways. Anyway, birthdays and...
Pros: Versatile, Durable, easily cleaned Cons: the accessory pieces are now made of plastic, they used to be wood too
I am a preschool teacher and I highly recommend these building logs to everyone who wants to allow their children to create. These logs are so durable that my classroom of twenty-five four and five years olds haven't destroyed them in the 3 years since...
Pros: Creative, fun, brings back wonderful memories Cons: none
My grandchildren love Lincoln Logs. I rediscovered them when my daughter-in-law was sharing memories of her childhood with me, wishing she had her old set for her children. They had been lost over the years as many good things are.
One of my favorite toys as a youngster was my Lincoln Logs. These toys are durable and can occupy young minds for hours. I was excited to recently receive this product at my child's recent birthday party. Lincoln Logs sets consist of interlocking wood ...
Pros: Very durable, it works on kids creativity somewhat, Cons: little on the expensive side, stifles creativity compared to other building toys
I have to say, I think Lincoln Logs are great for the kids. My son got a box of them for Christmas one year, and because he was limited in how big he could make his log cabins, my dad got him another box, the Lincoln Logs Frontier Fort.
Pros: inspires imagination, practice with agility Cons: lots of little wooden pieces all over the room
I remember playing with these when I was a child, so I bought this set a few days ago and was going to give it to my son as a Christmas present. But he seemed very bored the next day, so I pulled it out of the car trunk and he lit up in joy. He opened ...
