Fisher-Price Mega Bloks Swing & Slide Safari
(Fisher-Price $29.99)
Fifty-nine chunky pieces that can be built horizontally as a playground style set up or vertically into a tower that is almost 3” high. There is a vehicle and safari driver and animal blocks that can slide down a ramp and sit in a swing. Marked for kids 1-5, the true sweet spot for max enjoyment will be older twos and threes and even they will need help in figuring out how some of the fancy pieces like the slide and swing fit into the setting. For beginning block play, stick to less elaborate sets of blocks that are totally open-ended.
Ages: Toddlers, Preschoolers
