My daughter loved her basic wooden block set for years, she is now nearly 5 and her new tegu set has taken her creating to a new level. She is obsessed with the endless possibilities and im so impressed with what she has been able to create so far. I am really enjoying using them with her and definitely think they warrant a place in any list of best wooden building toys.

I would love to hear what your thoughts are on an innovative take on the classic wooden block: wooden blocks enhanced with magnets. (We'd love to be in contention for a spot on your list!) Here at Tegu, we have learned that magnetic wooden blocks allow kids to build more elaborate creations (from race cars to peacocks to abstract sculptures), stimulating further cognitive development and literally defying gravity. Tell us what you think! Thank you again, Maria at Tegu Hi Jennifer,
