True to form, something good always comes from building with classic building blocks - a high rise apartment complex, a mountain peak, a zoo, a castle, a parking lot, a tunnel, a bridge, a football field, a barnyard, a race track, a staircase, a swimming pool, an igloo…Every family benefits from a set of high quality, basic building blocks.

Review of Basic Building Blocks - Extra Large Starter Set
Posted 8/15/2012 by Elizabeth Barber

Though I purchased these for my youngest, they are a hit with all of my kids--ages 6-11. Classic blocks with new, inventive shapes as well. Really pleased with this purchase. Hours of creative play ahead. My 6-year-old commented on how things made in Germany are better than those made in China. Very true. We also purchased the vehicle set and the two sets together make a nice pair.

Review of Basic Building Blocks - Extra Large Starter Set
Posted 6/25/2012 by Suzanne A.

This was a gift for my 2 year old niece. Her parents requested basic wooden blocks. The Haba blocks are anything but basic! They are heirloom quality that will last for generations! Everyone at the birthday party couldn't put them down, their tactile appeal is off the charts. As a former preschool and kindergarten teacher, these are the blocks I lusted for in my classrooms!
