28 wooden cubes, each 1.75 inches per side. The set includes four full alphabets, colorful numbers, math symbols, and a menagerie of hand-crafted animals, with detailed embossing on two sides of every block.
Spelling, sequencing, sorting, building, matching, and counting. The four alphabets allow children to spell longer words and complete sentences than a single-alphabet set, and the embossing adds a tactile dimension that supports early letter recognition by touch.
Best suited for children old enough to handle wooden cubes safely, typically 12 months and up with supervision, with self-directed play often starting around age 2. Always supervise younger children with small wooden parts.
Sustainable Midwestern basswood, printed with safe-to-touch inks. The wood is responsibly sourced and the inks are non-toxic, which makes the blocks safe for the inevitable mouthing and chewing.
Uncle Goose, a Grand Rapids, Michigan brand that hand-manufactures the blocks in the USA. The set is a long-running classic that often becomes a multi-generational keepsake.
