Tegu Wooden Tints Set, Assorted, 14 Pieces (TEG14PTNT306T)

Tegu blocks are a must-have for toddlers and adults alike. Yes, they are pricey, but they are worth every penny, nickel, and dime spent. Plus, the company itself is built upon a great initiative. My children and I enjoy quality one-to-one time with just this one set. It encourages imaginative play, and helps with math and science! It's quality craftsmanship, bright colors, easy for small hands, and a great toy to tote around. We enjoy blocks very much and own a good number (200+) of Melissa & Doug blocks. These are much smaller in size and easy to throw into a jacket pocket, lunch bag, or diaper bag for a quick on-the-go trip. The best part is that they're magnetic, which makes gathering the bunch quick and easy. We keep them on our dining table that we jokingly call "table of plenty" because we do everything on it: meals, art, school work, etc. So, while helping one child with school work, I use these to keep our toddler busy. Plus, it's fun science for my kindergartener to discover the many things that are magnetic! We're set on purchasing more and might even end up having to purchase a case. I have to say that this alone is a perfect gift for anyone from baby to adult.

This unique, novel discovery toy is fabulous for a broad age range of children. The smoothness of the blocks, impeccable paint job, seamless connections hiding the magnets, demonstrates the terrific craftsmanship of Tegu. I love the story of Tegu (Tegucigalpa), as my grandfather lived in Honduras for many years. I originally found these blocks at a special toy store in Hot Springs and bought them for the science museum I work for. I bought this pack for my grand nephew for Christmas, and he was so absorbed with the kit that he didn’t care to open any more gifts. Children will learn about physical sciences without even knowing it. I saw a similar looking product that costs less, but the paint job looked blobby and I want to support Tegu, the original creators.

These are such great blocks! I love the beautiful colors. They're smooth and weighted perfectly for little hands. This 14 piece set is a great starter-set. I bought these for my nephews to see if they would play with them. My nephews need some encouragement to be creative and with the aid of the Tegu wheel set my oldest nephew (who's 4) absolutely loved them! The adults played with them just as much as the kids did. The one thing to note is that the long, rectangular blocks do not have any magnets on the long sides, only on square end. This makes some construction ideas void. The magnets themselves are great. They are just strong enough to stay firmly in place, but not too weak as to fall apart. They don't snap in place with force which is a great feature to avoid pinched fingers! If you're looking for some educational, fun and beautiful toys for kids (or adults) then consider these!

Lots of fun to play with for both kids and adults. Very high quality and worth the price. Only complaint would be that the entire blocks are not magnetic, so there is some limitation on the number of combinations you can make - this can also make it frustrating for the younger kids.

Tegu's 14 piece set of magnetic wooden blocks is a good introductory set to a terrific (if expensive) toy. Included are two cubes, two pillars, two long flats, two short flats, and two angled blocks. This gives it a bit more variety to experiment with than some of their similarly-sized and -priced sets. As with any type of block, the more blocks you have the more you can do with them, and this is especially true of Tegu which, thanks to their relatively small size and the magic of their magnets, is just begging to be built UP and OUT! (They also work amazingly well on a magnet board.) For blocks, I usually go for natural wood, but for Tegu I like their tinted blocks best because the color adds a little spice while still allowing the lovely natural grain of the wood to show through (unlike with painted blocks). One last thing to love: Tegu's commitment to fair trade and sustainability, a learning opportunity for our children in its own right!

My grandson loved these blocks. Easy to use and very mobile.

Nephew loves this set!

These are great blocks. We've also gotten the smaller travel sets which are perfect for taking in the car and to restaurants. They seem really durable. I have seen the ones at the children's museum that are played with by hundreds of children each day and they seem to be holding up really well. My daughter has played with these since she was around 11 months old. She's now almost two now, and they've held up really well with a moderately abusive toddler. I'm not sure they would hold up with a baby constantly chewing on them though.
