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.

My rating of Standard Unit Blocks

This block set made by Melissa and Doug is really high quality. It is exactly what I have been looking for. Often block sets come with tiny pieces. I wanted a set for my daughter that was similar to the set I had when I was a child. This is the set. The pieces are nice size, smoothly sanded, and come in a varitey of shapes and sizes. If you are looking for a high quality block set that will last forever at a very fair price, this is the set!

My grandson plays with these blocks constantly. One day they are used for building a castle and the next day an aircraft carrier. With all the electronic toys and toys that leave nothing for a child's imagination, these blocks allow a child to imagine, create, and play whatever he wants on any given day.
A classic!

A must-have toy for any age kid. Our 2 year old girl loves organizing and arranging toys so this toy choice was a no-brainer. The blocks are a wonderful quailty that I am sure will last through many more kids. The blocks come with a wooden crate/box for storage with handle-holes in the sides (no lid though). Blocks are very smooth and very exact. Shapes range from different size rectangles, triangles, columns, half and quarter circles. They are pretty much the typical blocks you would see at a daycare/preschool/kindergarten. We've made many different ramp combinations for hot wheels cars as well as many towers and castles (yes, I enjoy them too). I am considering buying a second set for my son as we already run out of certain shapes when building big projects.

Well made blocks and a good number for several children to play together. All ages can join in on the fun of construction. Love the storage box container, looks nice and keeps the blocks neat.
