A charming wooden neighbourhood in blocks

This delightful set of six rectangular wooden blocks creates an engaging little neighbourhood that invites children to explore, count, and discover. Each artfully designed block works together to form a streetscape featuring six distinctive houses and changing weather patterns.

Children can count the six different houses, observe how weather changes throughout the day with illustrations of rain, clouds, sun, and moon, and piece together a charming sausage dog puzzle that spans the blocks. The set even includes a working ruler that measures eighteen inches.

Handcrafted in Grand Rapids, Michigan, from sustainable Midwestern basswood and printed with child-safe inks, these blocks represent Uncle Goose's commitment to creating toys that are both educational and beautiful.

More than just building blocks, this set functions as a decorative puzzle. The artful design means these blocks look as wonderful on a shelf as they do scattered across the playroom floor.

Suitable for children aged 2 years and up.

Set Contains: 6 rectangular blocks
Block Size: 7.6 x 4.4 cm each
Made: 100% in the USA
