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 love the quality, the design and the colors. I have not observed, yet, the children use it, but I played with the products and I know that the children will love it. I bought with one particular child in mind, a kindergardner in my school. He is a child who loves building and I wanted to offer him something different than the traditional wooden blocks.

Because this item is made in China, I am a bit concerned due to past recalls, it is painted and therefore I am returning it for a refund. I should have checked this part our before purchasing as it is something I consider with all purchases for my grandchildren's toys. (Note from Fat Brain Toys: No worries with Twig! Twig is a non-toxic toy that has been fully safety tested. A water based, non-toxic stain is absorbed by the highly renewable rubber wood, eliminating possibilities of chipping or peeling of Twig blocks. Additionally, Twig's production facility meets extensive safety requirements.)

Like every other constructive toy I have ordered from Fat Brain Toys the Twig is being enjoyed by all my granddaughters. It requires them to use their imagination, a little skill and a lot of eye hand coordination.
Awesome toy!

Well-made, fun product. I purchased this as a Christmas gift for my 4-year old daughter and both she and her 6-year old sister really enjoy creating interesting structures with them.
