These have been highly rated in a parent magazine I get. I can't find them IRL, so would order online.

Anyone have them? Are they a hit??? I would be getting them for DD#1, age 3.5

TIA

We don't have them but they look like fun! I just saw a bunch of them at our Toys R Us, have you checked there?

Does she have excellent fine motor, does she like doing fine detail patterns/puzzles AND is there a place where she can play with them completely away from the baby?

I am pretty sure this a 4+ or 5+ toy. You use the tiny one x one Lego pieces to make pictures. My 6 year old thinks they are really cool.

You can also download pictures and you can do them yourself with regular (one x one) Legos and a baseplate.

ETA: I have seen them at Target if that helps you.

Thanks ladies!

Yes, she has excellent fine motor skills. Her daycare provider says they are much better than most kids in kindergarten. I was thinking Aquadots, but obviously not anymore.... Yeah, I would definitely have to keep the lego away from the baby, LOL. I thought the Lego would be better than the Aquadots b/c the pieces would (hopefully) be easier to see on the floor than the little balls.

Hmmm, I didn't know you could use regular lego to do ths same thing. Maybe if I can't find them IRL I could try that first.

Thanks again! :)
