Product review of Original Blocks & Marbles - Super Set
Posted 7/11/2008 by Mary L. Taft

Rating: 

Nice variety of smoothly sanded blocks. Set includes 14 marbles--enough so grandsons will still have plenty if/when a few marbles disappear.
I bought this set as a birthday gift so grandsons (now 6 and 8 years old) can play with this creative and challenging toy at home as well as at my house. They started playing with my smaller set two years ago and it is truly a favorite when they come for a visit.
If the blocks are individually hand sanded, the value for the price is certainly fair. If the blocks are all cut, grooved, and sanded automatically by a machine, then I believe a fair price would be closer to $35.00.

Mesmerizing Toy

We bought this set for a friend's birthday and it's fantastic. I really love this toy. My 4 year old daughter is fairly interested in her own smaller set of blocks and marbles. She wants me to build runs for her and I'm always working on them long after she has wandered off. She has a 3 year old friend who spends a lot of time at our house and he adores her set--it's the first thing he plays with when he comes over. He doesn't build working runs himself but he does experiment with the building blocks and with sending the marbles through the holes. When I build runs for him, he stays interested for quite some time and will do what he can to "improve" on my designs. This was the obvious birthday present for him. The super set is perfect for the variety and complexity it affords. The extra marbles are also a great idea as they always somehow manage to go all over the house.

Blocks And Marbles Are FuN!

The blocks and marbles set was a hit with the 4-7 year olds. Without much instruction, they immediately started to build tracks and problem solve why the marbles weren't doing exactly what they'd expected. Fun!

Creative Toy For Years Of Innovation

The whole family gets involved to the point we hold building competitions! I only wish there were an even larger set, or maybe we need two sets for my family because we fight over the blocks -But that is another example of innovation and problem solving. The set works great. What a great toy. We recommend it to our friends and family. We like the storage bag and several marbles.

My son liked the concept and it is a good concept. But I think they should have included a couple of different types of blocks to make the towers easier. Too many of one kind and not enough of others. Maybe the larger set has more variety. He enjoys playing with it, but some of his concepts need additional and different types of blocks.
