Twig! A gratifying new branch to the Classic Building Block family tree!
It's a building set that really offers you the freedom of exploring the-inside-and-the-out of fun designing. Playing with Twig is gratifying for your hands - and offers mental play that's exuberant!
Wondering what makes Twig blocks so special? It's not the green conscious design and packaging, the colors, or even the shapes, it's your hands and mind in concert with the finest materials for amazing building. Equally appealing in the playroom, in your office, or on the coffee table. Twig is design for everyone.
With Twig, you create using your mind's eye... Your mind finds satisfaction in sorting colors, finding solutions for intermixing pieces of varying depth, accommodating diverse interior dimensions and shapes, and making final adjustments to your masterpieces. Precision-cut wood pieces slide in between and next to one another with ease. Extra rich colors add terrific flair to structures.
Learning comes naturally. Twig construction sets refine small motor abilities. Twig helps develop skills in logic, problem solving, visual-spatial ability, creativity and ingenuity, sensory awareness, language & vocabulary proficiencies, cooperative and independent play skills, and artistic expression. Kids love putting the unique interchanging pieces together.... adults love the freedom of design.
Precision wooden shapes and vibrant colors meet in modern building blocks. Natural wood is carved with care and colored with brilliance. Light plays its way through the windows of Twig - illuminating lines, contours, space, and arrangement. Open your mind and imagination to new exercises in visual spatial development. More Twig.

I ordered this item for my two grandsons ages 2 1/2 and 4 1/2. It seems to be a hit. These blocks are somewhat out of the ordinary and held their attention more so than just regular building blocks. This was especially true for the 2 1/2 year old. I would certainly recommend them as a new and interesting construction block for toddlers.

I love these blocks, my son is still a little young to really use them correctly but I know he will have lots of fun with them as he gets a little older.
Awesome for all ages

We bought this for our 3.5 y o son as soon as we saw it, and then had to let it languish in the closet until Christmas. We were tempted to pull it out and play with it once he'd gone to bed, but we restrained ourselves. Of course at Christmas, there were so many toys that Twig was a little overshadowed. Soon, however, Twig became a favourite. When we suggested pulling out a "family game" for after supper, our son always said "Twig!". Then he started telling us before supper that he wanted to do "Family Twig" later. He would divide up the pieces by colour, two sets for himself, two for Mama and two for Mommy. Twig has become such an important toy for him that we even take it on holidays. He has a variety of construction-based sets, but this is his favourite. And it's definitely our favourite.
