Smooth, precise Dado Planks are candied color for the eyes it's true. Though you'll relish most - the SWEET satisfaction in building and creating with impeccable precision.
Our durable, high quality plastic building planks feature precise notches so your fine motor and logic skills get to run wild. Fit them into one another or slide a solid plank in the mix. Connect and interlock on a whim or carefully plan ahead. Either way, you'll build configurations that are surprising and well beyond ordinary. The combination of standard building planks with clever notched planks provide versatility and stability that make us shout, "By George- now THIS is fun with construction!"
(Seriously, we've been known to be giddy over the genius stuff we've created with Dado Planks. Fun, fun, FUN!)
Specifically designed to accommodate the building of large, intricate structures. 106 pieces are strong and interlock with amazing precision. Dado Planks - The newest members of the Dado family really stack up!

As one of the top online toy retailers, we have access to unprecendented quantities of product review data. One of the key ways that we use this data is by associating our products to the specific ages and genders of the kids who are playing with them. Whereas most retailers must rely upon manufacturer suggested ages (i.e. 3+), we take actual customer usage and share it with you here so that you can choose the perfect toy or game.
But how does this help me? You can use these graphs as a general measure of it's appropriateness for a given age and gender. While this information is generally accurate, it should not be used as an absolute answer. For instance, many dinosaur toys are purchased for boys, however, that doesn't mean that it's inappropriate for a girl who happens to like dinosaurs.

NOTE: The orange color in the charts above indicate ages that are LESS than the manufacturer suggested age. Please purchase at your discretion if your child is younger than 3 years of age.

Dado planks
Posted 29 days ago by Scott Collier
Rating: 
These are great. They allow my five year old to build some great designs and then actually play with other things with them (cars, action figures, etc.). They also don't elicit the frustration sometimes caused by regular blocks because they aren't prone to getting knocked over.

I gave to my grandson and he was thrilled. This is a toy of choice when his brothers are busy elsewhere.
Great Product
