The Genuine Wood Interlocking Blocks

This is the set of 48 blocks comprising five species of wood that enables the young naturalist to make structures and intricate designs. Each set of blocks is unique because of varying availability of wood species, including Japanese cherry and zelkova, magnolia, maple, hornbeam, and birch. Precisely cut into a rectangular shape and sanded smooth for easy gripping and stacking, each 1 1/2" L x 5/8" W block connects to another with eight points, displaying the characteristics of the wood from which it is made, from the varying colors of Japanese cherry to the bright color of birch. An illustrated guide demonstrates how to build different structures, including a reindeer, crocodile, tree, bird, monster, or rabbit. Ages 4 and up. Box 8 1/4" L x 5 1/4" W x 1" D. (8 oz.)
