Is 1 year too young for these blocks?

I purchased them for my son when he was less than 1.5 years old. He still plays with them now at over 2! In answer to your question, I think 1 year old is fine. He will learn to build bigger and better things as he gets older. I recommend these blocks to your 1 year old for sure.

I got them for my 1yr old granddaughter. She & her 2 yr old sister played with them. They are great for any age.

No. My 16 month old loves taking them apart but he is now understanding how to stack. They are great to also teach them their colors!

My grandson was just over a year old when I bought these for him. A bit too young to comprehend building, but he did have fun knocking them down after we built things for him. LOL And they are too big to be a choking hazard so 1 yr old is not too young.

My son received these for his 1st birthday and he loved them. Still does 10 months later! The are large so you don't have to worry about choking.

I think it is still good for a one year old because it teaches colors and also distinguishing size order. My niece is one and she still lives hers. I would say the maximum age would be after the child has learned their colors and is not interested in putting things together or in order anymore (Maybe 2-3).

No I would not give these to a 2 year old. Maybe 3 1/2 and older. The shapes are small and must have good hand coordination to place shapes on puzzle. I'd get something that's larger and a puzzle that helps them learn their shapes first.

My grandson is 17 months and does fine with the set. Maybe there is a concern a toddler might fall with the utinsels.

Personally I think yes it would be too young for a 2 1/2 year old. My 11 month old gets bored with it. I'd say up to 1 1/2 maybe. That is just my personal opinion though.

I have no idea why would it state that , maybe it is some kind of requirement(for example, baby head band can be used by babies under adult supervison, but if left unattended can pose a choking hazard! ) I got these for my seven month old at the time and now1 year later It is still one of the best toys she has! She is no longer chewing them, but now can stack these blocks or is looking at all the sides picturing different animals and textures as she can recognize most of them. Next step would be to learn to squeeze blocks to make them squeak. I don't see how it is hazard. Blocks are 2x2 in made of sturdy but flexible material. The only thing perhaps, if older child could bite some piece off, which would be quite challenge but not impossible.

I would say you could introduce the world of duplo to your child at about 12 months. It will take some time for the child to get the technique if sticking the pieces together and taking them out. Mines been playing with it since 12 or 14 mths i cant remember. shes now 21 mths and still playing with it everyday.

I haven't opened this, but we have similar sets. The blocks are small. Anywhere from a couple of inches or less. My 4 year old plays with blocks this size and we've never had a problem with him trying to put them in his mouth.

No, a one year old will enjoy this toy and can stack with it as well as play with the cars. It is good for many ages.

I got this for my son when he was 13 months old. He likes to ride in it and also push it. Amazon's description and I think what is on the box says 18 months to 8 years. 1 year old is fine as long as they are walking a bit and have decent body control. I would think kids will get bored with by age 4.

My 2 1/2 year old grandson plays with them with his older brother and sister. The size of them could be a choking hazard for a child that age.The child would have to be well supervised.

I have had two blocks in the tank for 5 months. It is my understanding from reading about them, they are good for at least 12-15 months.

I would say no. It is designed to be cognitively appropriate for children 18 months and older, but my 20 month old wasn't interested. If your one year old just likes sounds, this would work. If you want it to be educational, I would say pass.

Not sure but my boys are 7 months and they hold them, try to eat them etc and it is just fine. Maybe because that is the optimal age for the motor skills to stack them and stuff? Not sure but I think they are fine for any age. They are wood and are hard so that is something to consider.

Nope, my 8yr has built a set (7 at the time with a littile help) and his older brother (12 at the time) can build it on his won. Just lots of 1x1 squares and other smaller bricks. This was on the Orgional set. This will most likely be under the tree this year for them.

I can't see why a one year old couldn't have this. I doubt they would do much with it at that age anyways. Also, I could not say if a child would or would not injure themselves on it. Anyone at any age could possibly injure themselves on an object within the environment they live within. A one year old should be under a parent's immediate supervision at all times to prevent accidents anyways. Just give it to the child. At minimum, one could keep it in the box until their child is 2 or up if so desired.

These blocks are small. Our 1 year old grandson had no trouble putting a hand around the cylinders. He is 2 now and still enjoying these blocks.
