Out first Bauspiel purchase!

This was our first Bauspiel purchase and my child and I have had a lot of fun with it. I had read a review comparing Bauspiel and Grimms. After seeing the difference I chose Bauspiel and I recommend these over Grimms. The quality is terrific and I really appreciate how this can be used to teach fractions. Buying from My Toy Wagon was a pleasure. I highly recommend this, especially to homeschoolers who want to use these as math manipulatives as well as building and play.

Versatile and fun!

If you're deciding between this and Grimms Large Stepped Pyramid, choose this. The pyramid looks really cool (and these *are* a different scale than Grimms blocks) but that means there are 4 tall pieces and 36 cubes. You're much more likely to want long pieces--plus if you have other Bauspiel this works fantastic--they fit in the holes of grids and the holes that a pair of x blocks make. The color coding matches their rainbow and building with the two together makes for a pretty cool looking tunnel.

Bauspiel Bauspiel is Uwe Deckelmann and his daughter Hanna. 'Bauspiel' means 'building game' in German, and the line grows out of Friedrich Fröbel's kindergarten tradition of simple forms that ask nothing and allow everything. The wood is native European lime, alder and beech, with maple and cherry from sustainable cultivation, colored and oiled so the grain stays visible and the soul of the wood remains perceptible. The acrylic and gems come from Taiwan or China. Everything is quality-checked and shipped from Augsburg, Germany.
