the children love knocking down the walls of Jericho with these blocks. They are a great hit. Little work to put together but they are very sturdy. Appreciate being able to find these. I have looked everywhere.

My two year old grandson loved stacking these as high as possible, just to knock them down, at first I was worried that they may not stand up to all the rough play. The blocks did great, and my 5 year old grandson loves playing with these also.

My daughther is 22 months and she LOVES these blocks. She hasn't stopped playing with them since we put them together. She is entertained for long periods of time building the blocks and then having fun knocking them down. They are very easy for her to play with as she is a petite. GREAT BUY! I would defintely buy these again next time for a gift!

Doug and Melissa blocks are a great toy and easy to put together. In fact, my 6- and 7-year-old granddaughters helped. The three grandkids (including a two-year-old) played with them immediately. My only negative comment is that I thought they were strong enough for the kids to stand on them, but, alas, they're not always sturdy enough for that kind of rough play. The chidren did stand on them, and most withstood the weight, but one crumpled. I would buy (and probably will) them again.

Great fun for adults and the birthday boy -- a two year old. The adults and pre-teens assembled the blocks and then got right into building towers. The two year old handed out the blocks and then joyfully kicked the towers over and since it is virtually impossible to get hurt with these light weight blocks, a good time will be had by all for years to come.

Good Activity for Little Minds

Once you get through assembling all of these blocks, the kids really do enjoying building and smashing them. Sometimes the simplest ideas provide kids with the most room for ingenuity and ultimately growth and learning. These blocks are better for your little child's mind than anything with a battery.

These are great blocks! Very sturdy and easy to put together. My son is 16 months and he loves them. I build towers and he knocks them down, laughs, and then claps. He could play with these all day. I only gave it 4 stars because there are only 8 big red blocks and 8 medium blue blocks. I wish there weren't so many small yellow ones. I left half of the small blocks unfolded and in the box.

I rate this product very high overall. The assembly was easy. They seem very durable and the uses are endless. I used the bricks for a demonstration in a class of graduate students. The students loved it. Now the bricks will be used in a professional office that serves children. It seems that these blocks really inspire the use of imagination. I'm really happy to have them.

Simplicity brings out the best. Our two kids (ages 4 and 2) love these blocks. It was even fun for them while dad spent a few minutes constructing the boxes. Our 4 year old's imagination springs to new life as he builds hotels, walls and towers. Melissa and Doug toys have another guaranteed hit. The blocks are easy to fold into shape. Very sturdy.

Great for open-ended play and creativity. They can make big structures without hurting themselves when it comes down. I wish there were more big blocks and fewer small ones. A bit of a storage nightmare. Not for people with limited room.

We purchased two sets of the 40-piece cardboard blocks to add to our existing supply for the children at church. We noticed that these blocks had a much more substantial looking coating and we have to believe they will last longer than the ones we were currently using. I only wish we could order sets of just the large blocks to expand our collection. We really don't need more of the medium or small ones at this point.

My daughter is only 12 months, but loves to push the blocks over and move them to different parts of the room, as she grows I know that she will love them even more. I also purchased these for our friends two children (18 months and 3 years) and they love to play with them and the 40 piece is perfect because they do not fight over them! I would highly recommend these, as they will continue to be fun for your children as they grow.

I like this product for my son because I think it is good to have toys that do not direct how they should be played with, and this set of blocks is one of those type of toys. It has only been a few days since he received them as a gift, but already he has played with them in a number of different ways and enjoyed them mightily - as a fort, as a wall, as a garage, etc. They take about a half hour to assemble, but seem very sturdy and well-made.

My boys love these (4, 3, 1). Per a recommendation by a friend, we bought 2 sets. 40 bricks seems like a lot but really not enough to build something substantial. 80 blocks does the trick. Assembly is a doozie but only because the construction of these is so durable it needs to be.

The blocks were quite easy to assemble although it did take a while. Both kids, 4 year old girl and 15 month old boy, played with them immediately and for a long time. Even the 15 month old was able to lift blocks and place them on top of other blocks. Then the girl asked her parents and me to build a tower around her as she stood in the middle. She was thrilled by this. I haven't been to her house so don't know how the blocks are holding up, but certainly from what I saw I was very happy with the blocks and the way the kids were playing with them.

Purchased these blocks for my 18 month old grandson, because I remembered how much my own children had played with them when they were young. These blocks were literally incorporated into every imaginative game they played. I don't think I ever purchased a toy that were used as much as the jumbo blocks! These blocks are so versatile. They were used to build castles, grocery stores, schools, privacy nests, and whatever else the kids dreamed up. Plus, although they are made of cardboard, these things are tough as nails. They last for years.

Jumbo Blocks Review
Posted 12/27/2007 by C BaileyShea

Rating:

These are great blocks. It was a little time consuming, but they were easy to put together once I got the hang of it. My two children have already enjoyed building towers and demolishing them. I think getting them in the 40 count is better than the 20 if you really want to build towers and such. I do wish that there were more of the bigger blocks (the blue and the red) rather than so many of the smaller (yellow), but I figure we can always just order another set to add to it if need be. Another great product from Melissa and Doug. I especially love that I don't think that they contain any lead!

I purchased this product for our 4 year old Sunday Bible class. It worked perfect for the children to build the "wall of Jericho" and then have it tumble down. We have continued to use the blocks for review each week. They are sturdy and "rugged" enough to handle the tumbling they get each week in Bible class.

These blocks are a wonderful tool for the mind. They allow for cognitive thinking for children of all ages - from those that can pick up a block and stack one on top another to an adult playing along side their cherub. The different sizes also challenge them as well as making playtime fun. They are durable can be stood upon by little ones and do not collapse under their weight. The blocks are easy to assemble. One possibility is having the box that they come in turn into blocks that could be put into use.

This is my third order, over 30 years, of this product. In our family, the cardboard blocks are something we must have. Like Legos, they are one of the few toys on the market that all the children, grandchildren, of all ages, have played with and never get bored. They can be used for so many things, stack neatly when not in use, and are very sturdy under heavy use. I recommend at least two sets for each family.

These blocks have exceeded my expectations. They were made of the highest quality materials, easy to assemble, and so far have stood up to the abuse of my 4 year old "Knock it down" daughter. They've been able to hold the weight of a jumping 12 and 11 year old, the chewing of a teething puppy, and the creative designs of a homeschool group. And when the kids are all done, they stack into a neat little pile in the corner of the room.

This is one of the few toys that my both my 2 and 3 year olds play with every single day. The blocks have stood up to being kicked, thrown, stepped on, and of course the crashing down of whatever was being built. They seem very sturdy with only a few small dents from really rough play. My husband put them all together easily and quickly. Great Product.

When the kids walked in the room and saw them they literally gasped in surprise. They immediately were drawn into play time. I'm very pleased. The only improvement would be to cover them in a film that could be sanitized without damaging the blocks structure.

These blocks are great. They are reminiscent of the ones I had as a child, and now my 22-month-old son is enjoying them too. They are strong enough for a toddler to stand on them without breaking, and they're big enough for him to maneuver easily into his own little forts. I wasn't sure if the smaller set provided enough "bricks," and I'm glad I bought this 40-piece set. I'll be getting more sets as gifts for friends' children.

I purchased these blocks for my 20-month old son. He loves them! Not only has he learned to stack them (traditional wooden blocks are very small...and made stacking difficult), but he incorporates them into play with other toys. The blocks are also a great tool for counting. The blocks are brightly-colored and very sturdy, and it did not take long to put these together. These blocks are a great value! I highly reccommed them.

A Fabulous Classic- Nothing Compares!
Posted 6/19/2007 by Christina

These blocks are so wonderful. There is no other building toy I know of that allows a child to build life-size structures. My son is a year old and no matter how high we build the tower, it can't hurt him when it falls because they are so lightweight. He squeals every time we do it! He stands on them constantly; they are extremely durable. I also bought three other sets for 4- and 5-year-old birthday boys! Buy several sets if you really want to be able to build life-size buildings, trains, cars, etc. for your child to play in.

My husband and I waited until we were with our 15 month old grandson before we began putting the Jumbo Cardboard Blocks together. They went together easily and are very sturdy. Our grandson loved watching the process and wanted to be part of it. As soon as a few blocks were together, he began building towers. Our own children used these blocks and then I took them to school to use with my first graders. They too enjoyed building with these blocks. This toy crosses many age levels.

Super Blocks!

I bought these for my 2 year old granddaughter. My husband and I put one set together in about 15 minutes. The first one went slowly, and the rest were a snap. Zoe just loved them - she immediately began stacking them and knocking them down. She stood on, sat on and kicked them about and they show absolutely no sign of damage. Her mom took the second set home to put together for her, so she'll have some there and at our house. I may need to order another set when she gets a little older, so there will be 40 in each location. I highly recommend these blocks for active little people who play rough. They won't hurt if you kick them accidentally, either!

Each cardboard "brick" is easy for an adult to assemble; putting together all 40 will take about 20-30 minutes. The blocks are sturdy enough for a small toddler to stand on. My son (14 months) just likes knocking them over. They're good for open-ended play. When he's older, he'll be making forts out of them. I remember similar blocks from my childhood, but I recall them being made of heavier corrugated cardboard.

Great product. Easy to assemble once you work through the first one! We used the 'bricks' as 'banks' to include our pre-school through school-age children in investing in our church building project. We scored a coin/bill slot in one end of each brick and applied a label with our logo. Since we're expanding our existing preschool and childcare center, when the banks come back at the end of the fundraising campaign, we'll have a set of blocks for our facility to use!

What'd'ya expect, they're cardboard blocks! The quality is pretty good, the blocks seem pretty sturdy although on occassion the glue on the cardboard seems a little weak on the edges, but all the edges get folded into the inside of the block so it likely isn't a big deal. The largest number of blocks by far are the small yellow blocks. I would have liked a more even proportion.

These blocks are nice and really didn't take too long to assemble (about an hour for all 40). The only problem we've had is that the paper on the red blocks (the biggest one) isn't attached all that well, which made it a little tricky to assemble them. Now that they're all assembled, though, we haven't seen any problems.

We're Very Pleased

I had about 20 older cardboard blocks I had picked up at a yard sale. My 3 year old granddaughter loved them but couldn't do much more than build a ring around herself. Now we have a huge lot of them and she's thrilled to death. I'm very pleased with the quality of the blocks and the fact that there are 3 different sizes in the set.

Jumbo Blocks are Great

These are wonderful for indoor creative and physical play. My boys get into super hero mode, build metropolis and knock it down! It is a great way to be physical in the winter. They are very strong and the colors invite learning opportunity.

We have mainly enjoyed the blocks that I ordered for my young sons. The only complaint I have is the one of the blocks, blue, already has a small hole punctured through it. I would have thought they could have withstood more. (Note from Fat Brain Toys: Over the years, we've seen our own kids give these blocks a real beating. We have not known a wimpy block...this is highly uncharacteristic of this product. At our request, Melissa & Doug promptly sent Beverly a replacement block.)

My kids had a set of the big blocks when they were kids and they lasted forever. They were also used for everything. Now one of my daughters has triplets and the blocks were a requested gift for their 2nd birthday. The current product seems to be just as good and as popular as the set I bought about 30 years ago.

Once you get in a groove of assembling the blocks, it goes pretty quickly. Block are very sturdy. My son loves to knock them down.

Great Product for the Kids!

Although the product does require some time to put together, the quality is excellent. The kids were building forts in no time. It's a timeless classic that the kids will be playing with for years.

I purchased the Jumbo Blocks for my 16 month old granddaughter. I had purchased some Jumbo Blocks 23 years ago for her father. They were one of his favorite toys and totally indestructable. They lasted through building and demolition for 10 years. I hope my granddaughter and her new little sister will get as much use from these. Right now she likes grammy to build tall towers that she can knock down. She also like to sort the sizes and colors.

The blocks are going to be a big hit at my school!! Melissa and Doug make wonderful products! The only downfall was making the 40 blocks, but with a little help from a few friends it's over before you know it.

The blocks are terrific. I purchased them for my 2 yr old's birthday and she and her 3 1/2 yr old sister have had a ball. They are bright, durable, easy to assemble and fabulous for imaginations. They've been playing fort and tower for days.

These were a birthday gift to my son (age 2) and he really enjoys them. They're sturdy and a good size to build towers, tunnels and ramps for his cars and trucks. I wish there were more larger blocks in the set, we may purchase another set of the larger blocks only. They do take up a chunk of space. We lined them up against the wall in our study/playroom. All in all, a good find.

I gave this as a gift for a 4 yr old boy and he absolutely loved them! He has played with them every day since he got the gift. Grandma also has a set and my kids love to build streets and buildings and towers with them!
