Great creative toy!
I bought this set for my 5 year-old grandson and his 3 year-old sister. They were excited when they opened it and have been playing with it frequently since Christmas. They have great imaginations and Spiderman and Dora have been scaling the castle walls! The set is sturdy and well-made, and I think they'll enjoy it for years to come.
A great toy
Sturdy, fun and imaginative. For those who still love blocks but who have that great creative imagination that loves a story to go along with every game.
Great themed block building toy.
My four year old daughter is very impressed with this toy. She likes the fact that the makers of this set gave her two small wooden knights in armor and two small horses to help her imagine that they are gaurding Rapunzel as she sits waiting for her prince in one of the taller towers. There are enough pieces and accessories to build a nice sized castle. A picture on the box it comes in gives a few ideas on building but really, any child would have no need for encouragement to play this toy. There is no need. *I* even wanted to play with it!
The educational value is priceless. My daughter has told stories based on what she built, uses science and math concepts to build, and there are no limits on her imagination. Socially, it is great when more kids join in. I might get another set just to build bigger castles and towers for Rapunzel and her dragon friends.:)
I like the fact that it is very sturdy, very nice to look at (It looks beter than the picture - if that is possible), and introduces so many ways to play. Also, it comes in its own wooden storage box- something I was not expecting. The wood is very solid feeling and it looks great. I am very impressed with these blocks.
