Description
Wooden building blocks have a special place in almost every playroom: they are versatile, durable, generational and now magnetic! Magnets are completely enclosed within the ends of these wooden blocks allowing open, creative play that can soar to new heights! The basic cube is 30 millimeters per side. Other blocks use that same width, though with varying lengths (up to 210mm). The other shapes in the classic sets are square columns, planks, parallelograms and angles. The 42-piece set also includes wheels. Block sets are available in a variety of color themes. Jungle sets are a mix of yellow-green, green, brown and natural pieces; Tints include blue, green, yellow, pink, orange and natural pieces; Blossoms have light pink, dark pink, aqua, blue and natural colors; and Sunset sets combine aqua, light blue, golden-orange, reddish-orange, and natural blocks. Blues hold 3 shades of blue and natural blocks. Also available are cube or parallelogram packs (containing four blocks each) to add even more possibilities to your constructions! The Future sets are themed with robotic markings and come with a mixture of blue and natural blocks. The Pouch sets make it easy to take Tegu wherever you go! Prism Pouches contain six blocks (triangles and parallelograms) while the Original Pouches have 8 blocks (cubes and planks). Safety tested and sustainably sourced.
