Review: Perhaps if there were pictures with ideas of what to build it would encourage the child to create. I ordered my set about a year before our grandchild was ready for the toy. Then when I pulled the Bristle Blocks out, I realized there were no instructions or pictures. I telephoned the company from which I had ordered the blocks and they said there are no examples provided of what to build.
If anybody knows where I could acquire ideas, I would be very appreciative.

Review: I love having Bristle Blocks in my classroom, it really helps student use their motor skills. This set is great. I really like how it comes in it's own storage container. That is really helpful. I would recommend this to anyone!

Review: I am 37, and, for nostalgia's sake, have been searching for these. In the early '70's, they were called Stickle Stackle. I loved them! I don't really know how this version fares.

Review: I bought these for my daughter when she was 3. Now 5, she and her 2 year old brother play with them. They are no where near as good as my bristle blocks from childhood (still at Grandma's). These just don't stay together well at all. The people that swivel and the wheels looked like they'd add great dimension and improve a classic toy, but with the reduction in block quality (ie, they don't stick together!), I have to say these are a so-so toy, at best.

Summary: Another interesting way to build things

Review: My kids really like their bristle blocks. I like the bright colors and the different sizes. My 3 year old just likes to put the pieces together--it doesn't matter if it is anything or not. It is just interesting to him that they stick to each other at this point. I built a car for him--from that point on, he has been able to visualize different things--cars, buildings, yards, etc. and put them together. I think that these, blocks, gears, legos, lincoln logs, etc. are all very important to a child's development. These are lots of fun for a reasonable price.
