Guidecraft Table Top Arabian Style Building Blocks

This block set was purchased as a gift for my granddaughter.It is a beautiful set and very well made.No rough edges and very safe.There are a few small pieces to the set that may have to be putup until the child no longer puts things in their mouth though.At the time I purchased this set, little did I know that the various Guidecraft Toy Block Sets are made in different countries.I purchased four different sets.This was the only set that was not made in CHINA.Each of the other Guidecraft Toy Block Sets that I purchased were made in CHINA and were terribly made.They had splinters YES SPLINTERS on several of the blocks and they were not sanded smoothly.So, my advice is:make sure before you purchase Guidecraft Toys you check out what country they are produced and made.

I purchased this plain set of blocks with the intention of painting them, but the set is so lovely that I may just stick with a simple pattern and leave most of the wood natural. The photograph of the product does not look nearly as nice as the actual. The blocks have been finished nicely very smooth edges and rounded corners.

The listing on Amazon stated that the blocks are for ages 6+. However, the box clearly states "Ages 3+". The blocks aren't super tiny and most of the blocks in this set are comparable in size to sets for 18month+, but to be safe, I will sit aside the smallest pieces for awhile since my son is only 14 months old, which is what I've had to do with other sets that are intended for 12month+.

My only complaint about the product is that there is no storage box included. The listing mentioned one, so I assumed that it would include a plastic storage tub, like the other Guidecraft Tabletop Block sets include, but instead, there is a canvas storage bag. It is a nice bag though, and for what this kit cost (Only about $20+ Free Shipping), and the quality of the blocks (I'm very pleased that I won't need to sand them prior to decorating them) I can pick up a plastic tub at Walmart.
