Guidecraft Mirror Blocks 10 pc Set

My twins are 16months old. My son has loved to gaze in mirrors since he was born... and he has limited mobility so using his upper body for simple tasks like knocking blocks down is a good mode of activity. For christmas I purchased him this set (and his sister the sand filled set) and I felt the product that arrived was close enough to my expectation. They aren't cheap, but to add into say another more economical wooden block set, it really feels like a special toy. My kids don't sit and play with them for long, but I would guess that is due to their age, perhaps they are not quite old enough to do much apart from my help. The mirrors do get smudgy fairly easy, but I expected this. Kid fingers on mirrors... how could that not be the case? The mirrors do slide a bit within the wooden block/frame - no concern that they would fall out, but it wasn't expected. I don't have any complaints about the wood, it isn't really smooth but it doesn't look cheap per se. Basically, I'm saying the quality isn't awesome, but there's not much alternative in buying options and it's not as though they're going to fall apart, just us adults would like something very aesthetic and up-scale for spending more than $2 a block...

Mirror Blocks by GuideCraft are completely awesome. These are PERFECT to add with my 2 year olds other blocks AND it's extra fun because he can see his reflection in them. Kids LOVE mirrors so this was an easy "must have" kind of purchase. I suggest these to every parent of a toddler because these blocks are sturdy and fun. I can tell they're going to last a while, love the quality! We have Melissa and Doug blocks and these add more building opportunities (and taller towers to knock down). Don't think, just buy. :) Especially when they're on sale!!!

My 21 month old got these for Christmas and she loves them! She was never super into blocks until we got her these! She loves looking at herself in the pieces and they are fairly large so are easy to stack! I think we will be getting more!

Great! Arrived well packaged in "gift" condition. The blocks are sturdy and there were no scratches to the mirrors. I did end up sanding them down with a fine grade sandpaper. The edges were a little sharp and rough for my 8 month old. Other than that we are really enjoying these blocks. We also purchased the sand blocks and crystal bead blocks...they are wonderful as well.

amazing, love all the different sensory blocks. This one specifically encourages exploration of environment.amazing, love all the different sensory blocks. This one specifically encourages exploration of environment.

Fun and engaging....kids love them.

I'm a preschool teacher and my kids love them. They pair them with other solid blocks and look at themselves and the cars they use to play with. They use the half moon as a phone sometimes. The blocks are very versatile in play and without color (and not plastic junk), they are forced to use their imagination and cognitive thought process more. A+ in my book.
