Help Build Your Child’s Imagination With CitiBlocs!

One of the things my four-year-old loves to do is build imaginary cities and places using his plastic blocks. Not much keeps him busy, but he’ll sit for quite some time and work on building his daddy’s work, Disneyland, and may other imaginary places that he wants to visit.

Which is why I am thinking about getting him some CitiBlocs for Christmas. Citiblocs are high quality wooden construction blocks that allow kids to build anything to their heart’s content.  This product has won over 30 industry awards (including the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval which I consider to be one of the best stamps of approval out there!).

Every piece is exactly the same shape and size, precisely cut from certified renewable forests in New Zealand, and perfectly balanced. Citiblocs can be stacked into some amazing shapes and designs, without using any glue, snaps, connectors or anything else. All that the kids need is gravity, balance and some major imagination!

Based on several reviews I’ve read about Citiblocs, not only do kids love to play with them, but adults too! And on the Citiblocs website, there’s a whole gallery of designs that people have put together . . . fun to look at how creative some people get!

Citiblocs are for children three and up. They are certified safe and non-toxic, so it’s a safe product in my house even if my two-year-old twins decide to munch on them! The pricing starts around $20 and goes up from there depending on how many you purchase in the set.

So yeah, I’m pretty sold on the idea of getting a set of these for my son. I’m actually kind of curious about playing with them myself! What do you think? Is this a gift your child would like to receive?

    I’d say yes because my kids always like to play a game of Jenga, but after the tower falls down, they use the wooden pieces as building blocks and have just as much fun playing that way. So yes, sounds like a great gift!

    I have never heard of these but it looks like something that *I* would love to build! I know my boys would, too.
