They are a good bit smaller than her unit blocks, but we still mix the sets together to make really big castles! Playing with blocks is one of O's all time favorite activities :)
The storage case that the blocks arrived in was cracked, so I called Guidecraft and asked them to send a replacement. Their customer service is fantastic. They were VERY nice and immediately sent out a replacement storage container. I like to buy Guidecraft items since I know I can count on them to replace any missing or defective parts. O's Kitchen Helper is also made by Guidecraft, and they were wonderful about sending 2 replacement Kitchen Helpers when the only thing missing were the screws. I'm still shocked by that!
That is great customer service! O's castle looks fabulous:)
ReplyDeleteWhat set of unit blocks do you have? We have the basics by Plan Toys, but I'm looking to expand...
ReplyDeleteThe castle blocks are great!
That is a great block set!!! Isn't it amazing how much children love blocks? Glad your family had such a nice Christmas!
ReplyDeleteWow, I think I would like to play with those. Unfortunately my daughter does not seem to be interested in blocks at all. She rarely builds anything with them ... and if she does it is either a fence (for her animals) or a tower. Nothing more elaborate ... :-)

We have a basic set of unit blocks by Melissa and Doug.
ReplyDeleteMiss Muffin- O loves to build fences, too :)
I hope I didn't imply that O built the castle by herself! It was definitely a group effort :)
Oh, group effort ... I definitely feel better now! ;-)
