Title: Blocks are way too small, and too light
Review: These building blocks are way too small - you can't build much of anything with them unless you stack tons of pieces on top of each other carefully...which is impossible for a toddler, and my assumption was that this set was meant for younger kids. A toddler can't do much with blocks that are 1 inch x 1 inch square. Another negative is that the blocks are super lightweight - you need some weight in a good building block in order to balance things when you're stacking them. My son initially tried to play with these, but he quickly lost interest after every tower he built containing more than three 1-inch blocks fell over. The color is nice, but the paint has begun to chip after minimal use. I'll be ditching this set and getting something larger and more heavy-duty. I would have expected better quality from a Melissa & Doug toy.
