  • Frequently Asked Questions

    What can a 1 or 2 year old do with building blocks?

    At first, toddlers stack two or three chunky blocks and knock them down — which is exactly the point. By two, many build small towers, line blocks up and sort them. Simple, grippable building blocks grow with a one to two year old's coordination and ideas.

    Why are building blocks good for toddlers?

    Blocks are one of the best toys for this age. Stacking and toppling teach cause and effect, balance and early problem-solving, while grasping and placing pieces builds fine-motor control. Blocks also invite language and turn-taking as you play alongside your toddler.

    What size building blocks are best for a 1 year old?

    Large, chunky, lightweight blocks are ideal — big enough to grip easily and to be safe if mouthed, with smooth edges. Soft or large wooden blocks suit one year olds; you can add smaller, more varied sets as your child's dexterity grows through the toddler years.

    Are wooden blocks good for toddlers?

    Wooden blocks are a durable, satisfying choice for one and two year olds — sturdy enough to survive drops and mouthing, stable to stack, and often handed down. Choose smooth, non-toxic-finished blocks in a size safe for toddlers, and they'll last well beyond the early years.

    What blocks should a toddler start with?

    Begin with a set of large, chunky blocks in simple shapes — enough to build a small tower without overwhelming. Soft blocks suit the youngest; sturdy wooden blocks work well from around eighteen months. Add shapes and pieces as your toddler's building gets more confident.
