We've had these for a year and are considering buying more. Our 6 year old son, 4 1/2 year old son, and two 4 1/2 year old daughters consistently play with these tiles. They are constantly creating all sorts of different buildings and creations. We highly recommend them.

This is an excellent tool for building an understanding of color, shapes, and patterns. There is so much room for learning by using this toy! And best of all, it's fun! And, for us moms out there, keeping up with it is a breeze. It comes with it's own vinyl storage case, and who can beat magnetic pieces that stick to the board to ease your child's frustrations if the pieces don't "stay" where they are put. The pictures included are really cute - I especially enjoy the duck pattern - and my daughter loves putting them together. All-in-all a really wonderful (and cheap!) investment for hours and hours of fun, stimulating activity! Kudos yet again, Melissa & Doug, for a really great product.
This toy is great! My 10-month old has really loved them for a few months. The downside is the sticker decals make cleaning tricky, and I have to watch her to make sure she doesn't chew the stickers off. Otherwise great!

Blocks are blocks and children love them.
However, when ordering this item I ended up having to place 2 orders because I inadvertenly sent the original item to the wrong address and never got a response to my email inquiry to cancel the 1st order.
I don't think I will ever order from this vendor again.
I bought this at Target for my 11 month old, and she thinks these blocks are okay. She doesn't really play with them much. She will throw them, but that's about it. She doesn't care for what's inside. Not worth almost $30.

I purchased this toy as a birthday present for my child. He is a creative little guy who loves to build things and take things apart and then build again. What is great about the 100 count MagnaCase is that is allows him to do just that. There are no instructions for him to build a boat or a plane, he has the ability to build whatever he wants and we try to encourage that kind of creativity in him. I recommend this toy to anyone considering purchasing it as it has brought much enjoyment to my son and myself. (good quality time together)

I bought this toy for my niece when she was about 16 months old. She loved it. The pictures, the sounds. Three months later, she's grown with the blocks. Before, she lacked the dexterity to orient them in three dimensions so make the animals match up. Now, she can handle three dimensional movement, no problem, and her challenge is to get the front and back to match up in the right directions. She knows what animals they are , knows how to make the sound of all of them (woof woof!), and when a pig or a cow shows up in another book, that she can go over, get the blocks and arrange them to make the sound. She. Loves. Them. Melissa and doug - two thumbs way up.
At six months she's a bit younger than the recommended age, but our daughter loves these blocks. We started with Haba's 'first blocks' set with her, which she also enjoyed. When we added these Fantasy Blocks, which are similar to the starters but with patterns and different shapes, it blew her mind. (Especially the way the conical one moves differently than the square ones do.) She loves them.
I would agree with some of the other reviewers that some of these blocks are small enough to fit inside your child's mouth, but I think they're far too large for them to actually choke on the block. I'm not worried about them. Then again, she plays with them at the dinner table with us, so she's really never played with them out of my sight, ... Read More:
Overall it's a good product. I'm happy with the quality and that the blocks are made of safe materials. Your baby will have a lot of fun playing with them. Just make sure you know that the blocks are VERY small. I thought that they would be a little bit bigger.
