Description
Kids can sort, stack, and solve with the Melissa & Doug Pattern Blocks and Boards set. With 120 wooden shapes in a variety of colors and five double-sided boards, this activity invites kids to match, build, and explore patterns. Whether they’re filling in animal outlines or creating their own designs, children engage in hands-on play that encourages focus and experimentation. The boards offer multiple ways to play—kids can sort by color, count pieces, or build linear patterns. Each shape fits into a larger puzzle, helping kids understand spatial relationships and visual organization. This classic activity supports early math exploration and problem-solving through tactile play. All pieces are made of solid wood for repeated use. A great tool for developing hand-eye coordination and shape recognition, this set turns sorting and matching into a purposeful play experience.

Pattern Blocks and boards
My three yr old grandchildren are enjoying the wooden pattern blocks and boards. They need alittle help but the challenge is good for them. They are sturdy and very colorful. I included a mesh draw string bag with this gift to help their parents keep them organized.i had read a review from another parent commenting they wish the wooden container had a cover to keep shapes Contained; that’s why I included a mesh bag with my gift.

You need to Market activity centers for Seniors
I saw this at my local library and found it to order. I am 78 years old, live in independent living alone, and interact with jigsaw puzzle fans in the assisted living building. You should market this to our age group as well. The new one I got did not have the advanced challenges (7 ways to create a hexagon, etc.) I went back to the library to copy them off of their much older package. I am challenging myself to use every piece, create mirror image large designs, etc. It's a nice change from jigsaw puzzles. I agree about having a lid, too.

Needs a cover
I love the idea, but there’s two things against it IMO. There’s no cover, even a tough slide in like some of the others. It’s a lot of pieces to keep contained. Also, the puzzle boards and pieces are very slippery. A bit of texture would help keep in place.

Great for leaning shapes and designs
My daughter loves this, but my only complaint is there's no cover, so storing it is kind of a pain.

Great Blocks
Pattern blocks help toddlers develop visual acuity and manual dexterity. They help with the understanding of shapes and colors. You get quite a bit for your money when you purchase pattern blocks. Great way to increase math vocabulary by talking about how the shapes differ and are the same. Pattern blacks are awesome!

Great, but...
I actually bought a couple of these, one for my 3yr old nephew and another for my Senior Father with Alzhiemers. I thought it was a great product, but a little disappointed that it doesn't have any sort of cover, wood sliding top to keep every thing in place. After all, this i for kids and is just wide open top. If it had a top, definiely a 5star

Better lid/packaging needed
Great product, only issue is that it comes in wooden box with no savable lid or good way to store. Why even bother with wood box? Or how difficult would it be to add a lid that can seal or close to keep all the pieces in. Very frustrating.

Great for kids to use their imagination!
I simply LOVED it! My son 3y is crazy about, he uses even with out the templates boards, it insights their creativity. Now even my 8y is enjoying it. The only reason is not a 5star review is that it came in a nice wood box, but without a cover :/ and mommy here had to find a place to store it. Please in the next one, lets make mommy's lives easier! LOL

A bit easy for 3 year olds.
My three year old able to follow the patterns a bit too easily. But I’m hoping she can start to make freestyle patterns on her own using the pieces. This will be good for 2 year olds.

Blocks
Nice puzzle, the top painted areas scratch very easily, some arrived scratched unfortunately but other than that, they are great puzzles for learning.

Yes and recommend
It would help if the picture of the puzzle was recessed so the pieces don't move while you are trying to do it. But our 3 year old loved it.

Yes, I would recommend and buy again.
I also bought this for my grandson and he loves it as much as the magnetic. The pictures are different and gives him lots of playtime.
