tegu magnetic wooden blocks {review}

I was first introduced to Tegu magnetic blocks while sitting at the Martha Stewart keynote luncheon at BlogHer. I fell in the love with the magnetic blocks right away and knew that our children would soar with the endless imaginative possibilities that playtime would bring. 

We were sent the 22-piece Tegu Tints set. I was initially impressed with the colors of the blocks, as we all know children respond to colorful things and these blocks were no exception!  Payton got to playing right away and immediately started telling me how she was building a bridge to keep the sea monsters away and then moved on telling me how the pirate ship sank her boat. She sat quietly playing for a while. Now, my child loves toys like every other child out there but she will usually lose interest after about thirty minutes. She played quietly for over an hour and when she joined me during my adult craft time she sat next to me explaining the colors and what each blocks role was in her ocean. The block set encouraged her and it didn’t end with just her! Our little man got into the action as well, stacking the blocks and figuring out how to rearrange the magnetic ends. The company states the blocks are perfect from anyone from ages 0-99 and they are spot on! I ditched my craft and we all sat playing together, I couldn’t ask for a better toy for my growing children! 

Tegu doesn’t stop at just blocks. They also offer mobility pieces which bring that car to life, travel totes, pocket pouch prism which would be ideal for the car or while dining out. If you wish you can also make a donation to schooling or to planting trees in Honduras. It just makes me happy thinking about this company and it’s mission. I know we will be adding to our collection!
