Toys and Games Reviews of Fisher-Price Brilliant Basics Baby's First Blocks
Customer Review: My 19 month old loves this toy
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this for my daughter when she was 6 months old. At first all she wanted was to take the lid off and dump the shapes out and then she would lose interest. When she was about 14 months old we started working together on identifying the shapes and I would show her how to drop them in the box. Now at 19 months she loves to sit on her own and drop in the shapes. She will take the lid off, dump the shapes, replace the lid and start over again. She can name the shapes and now we are using it to work on the colors. She will frequently ask me to play "blocks" and carry over the box. This toy is inexpensive, durable, and invaluable in my home.Customer Review: Baby's First Blocks

I bought this so my 19 month old son could start learning shapes and better hand/eye coordination. Well, he likes/liked the toy for only a little while. When he got frustrated he just took the top off and placed all the shapes in the bucket. The problem (in my opinion) is that the top comes off too easily. It doesn't even snap into place to lock so that the child is forced to learn how to match the shapes into the appropriate holes. he knows his shapes and has actually learned how to put them in the holes but since the top comes off so easily, it has not been converted into a carrying bucket instead of a learning toy. Pretty much disappointed. :(Customer Review: A great toy to grow into

At 6 months old, our little one enjoyed taking the lid off and chewing on it. Now, at 9 months old, he's still taking the lid off, but he also enjoys dumping the blocks out and chewing on the blocks. I slowly put the blocks back in, and he gets excited to dump them all out again. The blocks are large enough that he can't fit them in his mouth, yet they're big enough for him to easily pick up. I'm looking forward to seeing him make the connection and putting the blocks into the holes on the lid. It's also very portable with a handle. Even with all of the blocks in, I find there's still a little room for a couple other small toys.Customer Review: We returned it...baby was bored.

Originally I bought these as "first blocks" for our baby (6 mos old) but ended up returning them since they're not very fun and pretty pricey for how cheap they are. For younger babies who aren't sorting yet, I recommend getting "HABA First Blocks Set"First Blocks, a bit pricier, but very good quality (safe wood, NOT made in China). These are captivating blocks that are very imaginative. True, they don't have the sorting qualities like this toy might, but are visually stimulating and can be stacked and use to actually "build" things.Customer Review: He Loves Learning His Shapes!...
Summary: 4 Stars
My 15 month old son has had this toy for about 4 months and he just loves it. After about of week of working with him, he's learned what shapes go where, and when it's time to clean up his playroom each night, he always puts his blocks back in the bin one at a time through their proper holes.
My only complaint is the lid. Like many people before me have said, it doesn't snap on, it just kinda sits on top of the bin. If I don't replace the top after he's dumped out all the blocks, then he loses interest and moves on. Overall, it's a sturdy, simple toy for teaching kids their shapes and we're very pleased with it
