Wow! This timeless classic toy has been jazzed up with colorful graphics that are sure to catch any child's interest. Great chunky blocks in a variety of shapes and sizes to challenge various hand skills, ranging in sizes from 1-1/4" to 2" big. And...finally someone gave some thought as to the laces - they are thick, easy to handle and have a nice long stiff tip making the manipulation of getting the lace through the hole very manageable! Blocks have over sized holes. Includes 27 wooden blocks and 2 long laces all stored neatly in a wooden box with a clear slide plastic top. Great for early learning of stringing beads.
