Clean fit, well-made. Should last, durable. Variety allows for creativity

Great for a two year-old

I am a fan of toys that inspire creativity and imagination. My 1-1/2 year old son seemed to always gravitate toward mega blocks and the like, so I thought these bristle blocks would be a hit with him. The blocks are great quality—colors are gorgeous as always with Battat toys, the plastic is hard and durable while edges are nice and rounded (for when we inevitably st pnon one in the dark....), and the pieces fit together very easily. This particular set is a great starter-set as it offers a variety of blocks: regular blocks, wheels, flowers, and animals. So... you’re probably wondering: did my son like them? Yes! I mean, he plays with them off and on for about 10 minutes at a time, but he has to be in the mood to sit and play. These days, he’s off running around testing his physical abilities so it’s a bit tough to get him to sit and concentrate on toys like this, but I’m not going to knock Battat for that. I know in due time he will learn to better focus and concentrate for longer durations.

My girl likes to play with it, she pays attention with it.

My 2.5 year old absolutely loves these blocks. She has played with them daily since I opened them for her. I purchased these because I was looking for some blocks that were easy for her to put together. These fit the bill; she can connect them on all sides on her own and she can pull them apart on her own. That means she doesn't need my help, which is awesome for when I need to keep her busy for a bit. She adores the little animals and the flowers. She likes to make me a flower 😊. I like the colors and durability of this set. It looks like she has already bitten down on the edge of one of the blocks. One bristle is smooshed, but it doesn't seem to have affected the function at all. The only con so far is that this particular kit only has 45 blocks, which initially seems like plenty. However, you're limited on various block sizes. As she gets more serious in her block building I will need to get her a larger set.

My kiddo loves to play with these blocks. He likes the wheels and we've stacked the blocks up to make towering vehicles.

I remember Bristle Blocks from when my kids were younger. I wanted a building set that stayed together when carried around and something teething toddlers would chew on and if stepped on, would not hurt too badly. These filled those requirements. Plus the jungle animals were a big hit! We did put away a few of the smaller pieces so the teething 1 year old wouldn't put those in her mouth. The 2.5 yo likes making constructing objects with some adult help. A few of the pieces are hard to push together securely but I think with use this will become easier. Adults and children spent quite some time playing with them. I purchases 2 sets. One Jungle set and a basic set so there were enough pieces to make more constructed objects. A+

These are so fun. My 2 and 4 year olds dump it on the floor and start building daily. My son loves the little animals and my daughter likes to try to build the arch that's on the bucket. I like that there are many different shapes and how easy my son can put them together. Mega bloks only go together one way, these can go together at any angle which makes it fun for younger kids trying to figure out how things work. I would say as a gift for one child tho, the pieces are smaller and it doesn't seem like enough for multiple children to play and built without fighting over certain pieces!
