Playskool has given a new look to a set of stacking and nesting blocks. The base block has a dial that ratchets when turned, beads that rattle, a small mirror and twirling face dial, a sliding door and a grab-on handle. Fit all the other blocks inside the biggest one or stack the others four in a size order tower. The top block has a face and squeaks when it is pushed down. There are raised numerals as well as raised shapes that match the numeral on each block for simple counting. A good toy for exploring size order, stacking, nesting and beginning math concepts. Marked for babies over nine months, but will be a better bet for 12 months & up.

The company has signed a verification form complying with our safety requirements. We did not independently test this toy in a lab.
