Therefore, when I was asked to review these Uncle Goose Big and Tall blocks(soon to be on the market), I gave a resounding Yes because my immediate thought was “I’d love to see how Zion manipulates them.” There are 20 blocks in the set and 12 of them are double the height of a traditional block and the other 8 are of standard size.</div><div align="center"><br /></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0sSiCdZKCYjb0zi3f9ipyEWntrtzUrRURXDVi3AIXUwLZCw6Yu3ZB7tFATYmHmyIIuLuBgSUOm23PXhH5GTCPQokZzqcANABVdsw1jAyjEweeh6FB-6xzsNAZcFG9qnKaBEpfkMomY_Km/s1600-h/CSC_0538%25255B12%25255D.jpg"><img alt="CSC_0538" border="0" height="464" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDmqtVUaHgDU6rcEBqgCEIiVgr-eUNpL74AMWvtB8JKBx7NUurYncdFi-TXGNKTmdLUA_EetBN2nqS3w1c1NV3UxKKnmkbfOec7qmaQBMf6AYBMnOUlyAc9Y8Da0yFuE_kdjw50Tvj2LB9/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="CSC_0538" width="696" /></a><br /><div align="center">The font isn’t traditional, but Zion was able to recognize all the letters and numbers with ease. The colours featured are orange, green and black. Of course, those colours would fit beautifully anywhere in our home, but it’s almost as if they were made just for our playroom. The colours are exact! They would add a lovely pop of colour in a home with a neutral palette. </div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2skuFc3MhDAicVmKzC6aEc1GLltWluy5wuQxClg3THNJcMqFfs8NHezNFLI_mkOBw7VBJeib1KzevEteNRHQMkREdJmIokQlXAtWJmUUZioTcSj9ccmsu2G5NiayW6NZxmGIdIzdzxE71/s1600-h/CSC_0539%25255B18%25255D.jpg"><img alt="CSC_0539" border="0" height="464" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiogdoTC8J_5O0Qk1vX-ZI9FvKaw4SFZO-k7NxXS66-OHAPggZ_1Y-IxZqkxDEqDnjcYOlJ3aedASoBlzVgFhNLWEiyfyyGKmlB3czuSjLGWe75z6wfJFoXvc7dy_ZtSsRCu_NEx1JuVSoQ/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="CSC_0539" width="694" /></a><br /><div align="center">Zion did a lot of stacking, sorting, and counting of the blocks.  Oh, did I mention that the blocks are light weight? That’s really a big deal because the other block toys that I have are so heavy that if one falls on your foot, one usually wants to yell an expletive or two. They hurt!  These Uncle Goose blocks thank goodness will not give rise to a potty mouth or a screaming toddler/baby if one accidentally falls on someone’s foot. </div><div align="center"><br /></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilfY9nPtneml0Euz9h8yEW-WflDF4YnGeOi0zqOTHXPMCJpZ-xCLIK2j2oq_4nNa5f_wPbCUbF6OlasezXOsHEw8y28oP2wcfd6DJlZVOR-ddQCeWBI7FHukYcPAoNnWwf2vGzcCFFxsiM/s1600-h/CSC_0543%25255B13%25255D.jpg"><img alt="CSC_0543" border="0" height="468" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGpY8FwrFhafKMG6YqR6ttappXWHK57nKKQyDl2-FDQgLBDQApuaH-7qoxzWKX5AQR3F3Yig-vpcLq1yZL-Yk1dp4C6B4xU3Cj0qrTXX_U1H4tbCgkcDhyGvK1oRg-o8iAjFZMU3QtuNvX/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="CSC_0543" width="700" /></a><br /><blockquote><div align="center">Other shining qualities in these blocks are that they are handcrafted from sustainable basswood sourced from the U.S. and the blocks are embossed with nontoxic inks.  So when Baby Ian takes a bite out of one of them(which is inevitable), I don’t have to worry about him consuming any harmful toxins. Also, I’m just thrilled that there aren’t any off gassing of harmful toxins in the air from these lovely blocks. </div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaYTMXA6M99GgwM2RWmSWg6a-7-5HQmJ00GU8unsFX1YDU6STjK5YQIuSQVf2zeb52eIJquGWcQ9-1xJVnWgGB-R4TbIi_7FZA915IbVJfMbAfwoTWeOTrnBI9Dm4tiMJAh5OlEJVTNAul/s1600-h/CSC_0532%25255B7%25255D.jpg"><img alt="CSC_0532" border="0" height="468" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3G4FbR6LXm9OIDSxyMaBvj_Xbl2bsmM0LIZXiFIdIwpowdnAu9ZPwAj78hcwH0h4qOXIjpYdihYWB0zE2gAf-NjCho35l1IKvo-1-gg_whPJSnuUxTkKtfx6D6no2N6qeqhOCCt3CPQ-v/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="CSC_0532" width="700" /></a><br /><div align="center"><br /></div><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjo2bbOBL2jFJnnwkxpep2re5yYHslnv8tAPC13EsvHe3wiwf6EYscXr1kuCu6TLcbpbMr_xcnECMm98-Qk-I132_dAKtscoA0tFAooXPDDmVsoDWwxxlWdq3CzK-wM8kWI1q944Ypu8uAZ/s1600-h/blockslast%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img alt="blockslast" border="0" height="366" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0aTyH8x6XFFAp5bkPqWCp1q4kpEyXJ_h40s5NYYzSWojveOrsjSgfJiWKimNftSZNYlX5hdafDb4J7K0B_6U-sRCWtkXgloB8YBXMtSTXMbla8DQ2Pib35FGx73p4Gxhmh9UBqUXxSeX5/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="blockslast" width="700" /></a></div><div align="center">As an adult, besides being smitten with these Uncle Goose blocks because of their educational benefits and environmentally friendly appeal, I also really love their decorative appeal. I placed them on one of our bookshelves and they added such a great graphic punch to the bookcase.

Anyway, the point is they would look really cool in an office or as a decorative item in your home. I think since there are such big pieces, I could take some of the blocks and place on a bookshelf and maybe Zion won’t notice they’re missing… Honestly I wasn't able to find any cons with these blocks. </div></blockquote><blockquote><div align="center"> </div><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYpBF10zpY4cwElU2byxhDY50fFy63FM8BeW3esR1KT2BbIZx2yKOPakraASJu-dj9dRxbH47e4EwAPx1qS1gv8PwQ78wJNa08VqxOfjRGvV9A8Dtd3JWy45SOdmCWD4-oFWJgrpcByiGk/s1600-h/CSC_0528%25255B10%25255D.jpg"><img alt="CSC_0528" border="0" height="468" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTCmqkjFIrEUiYVEPC4Y8GsMsfxwvNd7pfa9tgYqTfwu_Ncm4EC6grCZOQJVaYEPRuKOrLGAX8zUmt4r2y8IytQrOJQQn3y7IoLW-c_pTluChFkCELOWtiPZOpJ5HYNv1ZEq5yL9CtMxmV/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="CSC_0528" width="700" /></a></div><div align="center">I absolutely love them and most importantly Zion hasn’t gotten bored with them yet and that is a very good thing!
