Wooden building blocks are essential for little children as a toy.
Blocks not only provide lots of fun but are very stimulating for the child.
One nice thing about this old educational toy is that there is not an incorrect way to stack them.
Children will soon learn the easy way to stack things and work the balancing act.
All children love to line things up and that is another interesting thing about blocks.
Wooden building blocks do not always need to be built by stacking but laying them down on the floor and lining them up provides lots of fun and also stimulates hand/eye coordination.
Blocks come in all sizes, shapes and colors.
Some blocks are small for toddlers while others are more detailed for older children.
Some are painted, while others are stained and some are left unfinished for the natural color of the wood to show through.
I prefer the unfinished wooden blocks to show the natural wood colors.
The better quality blocks are made of a variety of hardwoods.
There are also some that can be put in a bathtub and children can enjoy them during bath time as well! Wooden building blocks are a good old fashioned toy that has proven to be a toy that children have enjoyed.
Buy your child some good old fashioned blocks and watch your child enjoy that toy.
Wooden building blocks will be an investment that you can give to your child and probably still have for your grandchild!
