Grandson loves the Thistle blocks
My Grandson loves these blocks. Plays with them for hours. I likes to build airplanes and cars and is a little frustrated with the wheels not staying on the axles, but other than that there isn't any problems with the blocks. They entertain him for hours (he is 3). I will purchase more of the...se blocks for him, as he loves to build tall buildings, tunnels etc.

thistles don't stick
The first thing we noticed is these thistle blocks are not "standard size" so don't fit with our existing set that we wanted to enlarge. (different size, don't interlock) We separated the two sets we had combined and thought they'd have to be used separately only to discover that the new thistle bl...ocks do not stick together well. When you can get them together, they slowly push each other apart. Planning to return this item for a refund.

Had a few of these already so bought to add to what I already had. Lids loved the smaller pieces and different shapes. They get really creative making things.

We have used these for years & our recent purchase was just to spruce up what we already have - you can never have to many thistle blocks!

Thistle Blocks are perfect for children who are slow in developing motor skills. I highly recommended the Thistle Blocks as they are easy for all the children to learn how to build things and increase the hand eye co-ordination. The children of Kids for the Future become creative with Thistle Blocks. I would recommend these to any family that has a child with sensory problems are developmental delay.
