Nice unit blocks

We have our fair share of toys that beep, blink or speak, but one of my son's favorites are his no-battery-required wooden unit blocks from City & Country School. Now available through the cool Kid O website, these 100% European Beech blocks don't just become a road for his cars or a gravity-defying skyscraper; they are also tools that teach him basic geometry, physics, creativity and, of course, patience when his two sisters step in to play.
 
I love that City & Country has developed a three-step system for introducing unit blocks to kids as young as one, that start with the basics and move onto different shapes and colors. By the time my little guy is six, I plan to have multiple sets from each of the three steps so that he can build whatever civilization his little heart desires.

Just as long as he promises to pick it all up when he's done. -Christina

Congratulations to Toni A, winner of a set of Unit Blocks!
