Best Toy Stacking Block Sets Buying Guide

Before choosing the best toy stacking block set you should consider following options:

1. Number of Blocks Included: The number of blocks included in a set can vary greatly. Some sets include as few as 8 blocks, while others include as many as 48 blocks.

While you may think that more blocks means a better set, that isn’t always the case. If the blocks are too big, they won’t stack well and will be more difficult for children to handle. Blocks that are too small can also pose a choking hazard.

The best number of blocks to aim for is probably somewhere in the middle. An 18-20 block set should provide enough variety while remaining easy to play with.

2. Material: Blocks made from wood are typically the most durable. Also, wooden blocks tend to be the least expensive.

Plastic blocks are usually cheaper than wooden ones, but they aren’t as durable and can break easier.

Plastic also tends to be a little bit slippery, making them tough for children to stack. If you choose plastic blocks, make sure they have a good gripping surface.

3. Quality: You want to make sure the blocks are made from quality materials and that the manufacturer backs their products with a warranty.

Something else to consider is the ease of stacking. If the blocks are too smooth, they may not stack well. If they are too rough, they may be too difficult for little hands to grasp.

You also want to make sure the blocks are the right size for your child. If the blocks are too big, they may pose a choking hazard. If they are too small, they may be too easy to stack, making the game boring.

4. Additional Items: Some stacking block sets come with additional items to enhance the play options. These may include a board with a track that the blocks can slide on, along with extra blocks or people to stack.

If you plan to use the blocks with an infant, you may want to choose a set that has bigger or easier to grasp blocks.

5. Price: The price of stacking block sets varies greatly. You can get a basic 8-block set for as little as $5, or you can get a deluxe 48-block set for over $100.

So, what is the difference? Well, besides the number of blocks, the biggest difference is the quality of the blocks.

Cheaper sets typically include cheaper plastic or wooden blocks that may not stack well.

Higher priced sets typically include higher quality blocks that stack well. You may also get additional items with the higher priced sets that enhance the play options.

6. Overall Appearance: This may not seem like a big deal, but it can have a big impact on your child’s experience.

When children are playing with blocks, they are building something in their minds. Whether they are creating a building, a city, or something else, they are developing their creative and imaginative skills.

If the blocks are boring or unattractive, children may lose interest in the activity. If the blocks are colorful and fun looking, children are more likely to want to play with them.

7. Safety: Last but not least, you want to make sure the set is safe for your child. Look for a set that has quality, easy to grasp blocks that are smooth and easy to stack.

If the blocks are too big or small, they may pose a choking hazard. If the blocks are made from materials that are too smooth, they may not stack well.

If the blocks are made from materials that are too rough, they
