Infantino Squeeze and Stack Block Set - Colorful Textured Soft Blocks, Includes Numbers, Animals and Shapes, Ages 6 Months +

These colorful blocks are great toys for babies, toddlers, and up; soft, safe, and easy to hold and play with. They are simple toys that help develop many basic motor and cognitive skills. (Blocks have been a loved toy for generations for good reasons.) These have numbers and other details on the sides so they can grow with baby.I like that they don't have the interlocking protrusions that many soft blocks have, because those actually make blocks harder for babies and young toddlers to stack, and they also enjoy being able to knock them down. This is a set of only eight; wish there were a couple more but it's not a deal-breaker. The colors are just as shown (white, yellow, orange, red, dark purple, medium blue, light blue, light green), very pleasant colors. Easy to clean but I wouldn't use them in the bath because water could get inside the small squeaker opening and cause mold. They are packaged in a lightweight mesh bag.I bought two similar sets of 10 soft blocks of another brand in zippered bags for baby shower gifts, but those had a lot of very dark colors and omitted green. I bought this smaller set to keep here for when they visit. I like these a little better because the colors are prettier.

The price was a fraction of what babies r us wanted! I scanned the barcode with the Amazon app right there in the aisle and ordered these blocks immediately. They came right to my door in the time guaranteed and I couldn't be happier. My 6month old loves them already, but I'm not sure who has had more fun playing with them in the past 2 days, my daughter or my husband! Blocks are such a basic baby toy that offer lots of developmental play opportunities, but were really hard to find - I'm so happy I stumbled across this product. The silicone is oh so perfect because it's sturdy but light enough for baby to handle, and also excellent for teething drooling babies because it won't hurt their face when they slam it into their mouth to teethe. Also they're really soft so if baby is learning to crawl and the block gets stuck under baby, it's no big deal and won't hurt the little one. The pictures and numbers on the blocks will come in handy at later stages, and the colors are bright but muted which I really like, the yellow is not a harsh yellow, it's more of a soft lemon meringue yellow (I'm not a fan of the loud basic primary colors; many consumers may not notice that type of thing but personally I really like the colors included). Also it comes in a reusable bag to store the blocks in when not in use which is great so they can stay clean and dust/lint free, since silicone is a magnet for lint and these blocks will likely be in baby's mouth a lot.

I bought these blocks in the hopes that my daughter would enjoy building towers with them, but I forgot she was only nine months old and is a force of destruction. So while I enjoy stacking them, she of course finds delight in knocking them over. They actually helped her to start crawling...I would build a small tower on one side of the room, and while she would crawl and knock it down, I'd build another tower on the opposite side of the room and she couldn't resist going back to knock it over. They are also thankfully pretty soft so when she whips them at our dog or my face neither of us are hurt. :) These blocks also have raised pictures of animals, numbers, and dots on them that my daughter loves feeling, and they sort of squish in and make a perfect little teething toy for her.

These blocks are the perfect size and shape for my baby. He’s been playing with them since he was 8 months old and loves stacking them now that he is 1 year old. He also loves to chew on them, and they’re good for that, too.

The blocks are a good size for a baby to pick up and stack. The texture is great for handling and teething and the numbers and pictures on the blocks are appropriate. They are easy to clean and disinfect. My only issue is the colors of the blocks-they would help toddlers to learn colors if they came in the same basic eight bright colors as in a child's first box of crayons. The grey and off blue or green blocks are losers.

The other day, I decided to buy my son soft blocks. He is 16 months today and is at the age of learning how to build. He is also very much a boy that likes to throw. So, I decided to buy him soft blocks. No one gets hurt but can still have fun.After about a half an hour of browsing online, I bought the cheaper set from Amazon. I almost purchased the more expensive set, but I had a hard time justifying over $20 on a few blocks. The reviews all said great things but $22 something is a lot of money for a family of four.I found Infantino blocks for $8.88. They are perfect for a baby even who are less than one year old. He likes that he can throw them around and no one tells him no. A baby can chew on them and no harm. They squeak as well. I believe that they will last him a long time. Jason carries two at a time around the house. He likes hitting them together and making the squeak sound. He also lines them up or stacks them two at a time. I think I made a great purchase, and he will play with them for a few years.

These were just what I wanted. Rubbery but sturdy, still chewable. Very light and stackable and she loves the textures on each.

I bought these to add to 4 I already had. They are a good size for my 15 month old granddaughter, she can even stack them. They are soft enough that if they fall on her it doesn’t hurt. A good purchase.
