Toys and Games Reviews of Fisher-Price Brilliant Basics Baby's First Blocks
Customer Review: No brainer, but still fun
Summary: 4 Stars
The main complaint other reviewers seem to have is that the top doesn't stay on. This is true. What this means is that your child will see you put the blocks in, then will dump them all out, repeatedly.
My son has a blast dumping out the blocks, then he opens the lid, puts them back in, and dumps again. He doesn't have much interest in the shape sorter aspect of the toy, but it easily ranks as one of his favorites.
I think that with all the toys that light up and play music and move around - he enjoys the simplicity of something that isn't battery powered. And for this price, I'd buy it again.
Customer Review: Fun toy, but watch out for chewers...
Summary: 4 Stars
Both my sons have loved this toy, especially once they hit the age they put the shapes in. It made them so proud to hear the shape drop in! It is easier than some others we have and thus wonderful for beginners. The plastic pieces are very durable, but I gave the product four stars as the sticker on the box was partially chewed off by one of our boys. I wish it didn't come with the sticker, but I guess if this is a concern you could always scrape/tear it off before a chewer decides to do it. I just thought a toy like this that is listed for a baby would be "chew proof". For the price it was well worth the money.Customer Review: My daughter loved it
Summary: 4 Stars
We bought this for my daughter when she was 10 months old along with a kids' laptop. She rarely played with the laptop but really enjoyed these blocks. She was (and still is) at an age where she doesn't really know how to use them, but all what she does is carry two of these around with her all the time, one in each hand (at an age between 6 months through 1 year, all what kids want is smaller colorful objects that they can easily hold onto). She hates it when we take it away. She has recently started practising putting these blocks in the box and taking them out. Hopefully this toy's "fun" value lasts much longer.Customer Review: Love this sorter!
Summary: 5 Stars
This was bought for my 6 month old, so at first he's just chewing on the blocks, but I am really excited for him to start realizing what he is "supposed" to do with it. Very durable, bright colors, great toy all around.
As other reviewers have mentioned, the lid does no snap on, and I'm sure a lot of babies will learn to bypass the sorting because of this. Honestly, I see that as logical reasoning! Toys that have many uses are great in my house, and if he wants to just fill up the bucket and dump it out then I'm fine with it. Sorting the shapes will be a special game we play together.
Customer Review: Great learning toy
Summary: 5 Stars
Our son received this as a gift before he turned 1. Although he could not sort the blocks then, he started trying. It was amazing to watch him over the next year change the way he played with the toy. Initially he just played with the blocks, then threw them in the bucket, dumped them out again. He would also carry the bucket with blocks around by the handle. Later he was able to put in the round one, then another and within a short time all of them. He still likes playing with it. It was apparent that he had a sense of achievement after each new "accomplishment". I highly recommend this toy.
