    • Good quality. Lots of blocks.
I worried when I purchased these that they might be flimsy, difficult to assemble, or cheaply made with too many yellow blocks. After a few months with them, I can safely say that they've exceeded my expectations. They do require assembly, but they all fit together in the same fashion. The first two or three might take you a while to figure out, but once you have the pattern down, you can move really quickly. The first blocks might have taken me 5 minutes each to put together, but then I was doing them all in 2 minutes or less each (all sizes - all colors...they're all really the same basic folding design). These are strong, and solid. The coloring on them holds up well. They stack well and are solid cardboard. This means your kid can stack them up and knock them down as much as they want and they'll stand up to the play. There are fewer red bricks than blue or yellow, but that wasn't an issue for us. Kids aren't architects, they just to stack stuff and knock it over...and it doesn't matter which blocks I use to do that - it's still fun for them. This container has 40 blocks in it. That's more than enough. When you've got a dozen or so folded up, they take up a lot of space, so you just keep the rest for replacements. However, it has been a few months and none are worn out or broken. Now that I've got a daughter who's approaching the age to play with these, I'll be using the existing blocks and those left unfolded still will be used for her enjoyment. High quality. Fun to play with. Will probably last longer than your child's interest in them. ... show more

    • LOVE these blocks!
Given some of the negative reviews, I was a little worried about these cardboard blocks, but decided to give them a try. I'm so glad I did. My 26-month-old son LOVES them and they are so great for imaginative play. "Build-a-house?" he asks me. These blocks are quite durable. We made a pile of them at the bottom of his slide for him to barrel through (hysterical, if you haven't tried it) and they haven't shown the slightest bit of wear yet. He steps all over them, stands on them, and falls off of them but they don't cave or collapse inward. We have built huge towers and brought them crashing down and they still look great. Some people complained about not having enough blocks, but these were plenty for us. Maybe as my son gets older, we'll need more, but at 26 months, 40 blocks is more than enough. Another complaint people had was the assembly of these blocks - I don't get what was so bad about it. My husband and I folded them one night while watching an episode of Friends - it only took 20 minutes with two people to do all of them, and it wasn't difficult at all. After the first one, you get the hang of how to fold them and then it's easy. I'm also surprised at how many people complained they weren't aware they had to assemble them; I would imagine that more toys DO require assembly than DON'T. If you've ever put together Little Tykes Cozy Coupe, you are a seasoned veteran indeed and these blocks are an absolute cakewalk. I'll be buying this toy again and again as my friends' children turn two because of the HOURS of fun, creative play they bring to kids. Definitely worth the price for me and I have zero complaints about this product. It beats the heck out of the loud, obnoxious toys shown on every commercial! ... show more

    • Creativity for the whole family
Review Image by Amazon Customer Amazon Customer
The media could not be loaded. My boys have had so much fun with these blocks over the years, especially between the ages of 2-7. Their favorite activities with these oversized blocks were creating tunnels and forts/barriers to be broken through like pictured below. Our whole family also enjoyed having nerf battles and we would hide behind the brick wall for defense. They are sturdy and durable. We have had these around 5 years. You do have to construct them yourself when you first get them. However, once I got the hang of it, it didn’t take too long. The blocks can be difficult to store once play is over. I found a big trash bag is the easy, quick way to store them until next time! ... show more

    • Fun but hard to assemble and store
OK, so these are really sturdy once you assemble them and my toddler will really go hard with them. We stack them as high as they will go and my kid knocks them down with great force. We even put them at the bottom of the slide so my kid could slide down and crash into them. They are extremely durable. I put Four stars because they are so large and really hard to store, and it took forever to assemble. Very glad they came in the evening after my kid was asleep so I could just take like literally 45min. So, basically while playing with them it’s super awesome and fun but anytime surrounding playing with them is a pretty big pain in the butt. ... show more

    • Great toy for my 18 month old grandson
The Melissa & Doug Jumbo Cardboard Blocks was a hit with my 18 month old grandson. The colors pop (red, blue, yellow) and the three sizes (small, medium and large) are just right. It took a while to fold and assemble the blocks, but once you got the hang of it the process went fast. Kids love to stack them then knock them down (over and over again). My own kids had a set or two and they were a big hit 35 years ago as well. The Melissa and Doug blocks appear to be built just as solid as the original blocks my kids used. My expectations are these blocks will last a long time and provide many years of fun for my grandson and his buddies (and me.). I highly recommend this toy if you are looking for something that is NOT electronic and gives the ability to play along with your child. ... show more
