Perfect for your busy one year old! - I have a BUSY one year old little boy and was looking for something to keep him entertained for longer than 2 minutes, which is a challenge these days! He loves to fill, dump, and stack but the stacking cups he had were hard to stack and didn't fill to his satisfaction either. He either got bored or frustrated within the first 2 minutes of playing with them. Enter M&D Alphabet Nesting and Stacking Blocks! These are the perfect stacking block! They are made from a strong, durable cardboard with a wipeable surface and are so colorful with pictures, numbers and letters on each block. The variety of sizes is perfect for a little guy (or gal) who enjoys filling, dumping and stacking. They stack to about 3 feet high which is a big thrill for a little one and they fit inside each other too, adding to the fun! And they don't take up a lot of room in the toy box. We couldn't be happier with these! I can see them NOT lasting more than a year with a brother who likes to sit on them, climb on them and fill them with water but for the price, we'll just get another set! Review: Learning on so many levels! - What a great learning tool for my three-year-old granddaughter! There are so many different ways to play with these. We play peekaboo baby block, trying to find the smallest block underneath the bigger blocks. This is her favorite! Of course there is nesting and stacking in various ways. The blocks have the alphabet with animal pictures to help associate the sound of the letter. These are great for the price. Every once in a while she will try to sit or stand on one, which would break it. Stacking the blocks largest to smallest, on their side is a little unstable. It is best that they be stacked top to bottom. If I purchased another set of nesting blocks I would probably purchase the wooden ones. We love playing with these together though. ## Features - Set of 10 cardboard nesting blocks - Each block differs in size and features letters and familiar pictures - Blocks nest inside each other for easy and compact storage - Sturdy cardboard construction - Makes a great gift for toddlers and preschoolers, ages 2 to 4, for hands-on, screen-free play; product made with FSC-certified materials that support responsible forestry; applies to new inventory only (FSC C156584) - Ages 2+ ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000GIL2DU | | Additional Features | Set of 10 cardboard nesting blocks | | Age Range Description | Kid | | Best Sellers Rank | #8,879 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) #13 in Toy Stacking Block Sets | | Brand Name | Melissa & Doug | | Color | Multi-color | | Customer Package Type | Standard Packaging | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 6,016 Reviews | | Educational Objective | Letter Recognition | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00000772027823 | | Included Components | 10 cardboard blocks | | Item Dimensions | 5.91 x 5.71 x 5.71 inches | | Item Type Name | Developmental Toys | | Item Weight | 16 ounces | | Manufacturer | Melissa & Doug | | Manufacturer Part Number | 2782 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | Please check with the manufacturer regarding warranty and support issues. | | Manufacturer recommended age | 24 months - 4 years | | Material Type | Cardboard | | Model Name | Alphabet Nesting and Stacking Blocks (UC) | | Model Number | MND2782 | | Model Year | 2017 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Operation Mode | manual | | Set Name | Alphabet Nesting and Stacking Blocks | | Size | 5.9 x 5.9 x 5.9 | | Sub Brand | Doug | | Subject Character | Animals | | Target Audience | toddlers and preschoolers | | Theme | Alphabet | | Toy Building Block Type | Stacking Toy Building Block | | UPC | 000772027823 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Images ![Melissa & Doug Alphabet Nesting and Stacking Blocks - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61D-dnBCC4L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Pattern, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: How sturdy is this cardboard? Is it as flimsy as a cereal box? More like a shipping box?** A: I purchased them for my grandson who is eleven months old. I wish I had not. They are a cheap replacement for a good toy. Today I will be purchasing different ones. Dont do it, they are not a sturdy toy meant to go the distance, they split open quickly, If the toddler tastes them they peal right off, they are a one day quick toy for a party maybe? This is not a toy that will go any distance. :( Waste of money. **Q: How do I buy the lowercase letters set, pictured in the last photo of the Amazon pictures at the top of this listing?** A: Hi, The Alphabet Nesting & Stacking Blocks have upper case letters on one side and lower case letters on another. Best, Your Friends at Melissa & Doug **Q: What makes noise in tiniest box?** A: These are cardboard stacking boxes. There is no noise-maker in the smallest box. It is just a 5-sided box. **Q: can I close the bottom but fold top inward to use as holders for small vases/plants for baby shower?** A: They would be perfect as little holders. They are all closed on the bottom, open on the top. In other words, all sides of the cube but one is closed. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A HUGE hit!
