**Full Disclosure: I received nanoblocks for review purposes. No additional compensation was given. All opinions are my own.
I got a polar bear nanoblocks set when I was in Chicago for BlogHer. James ripped into it as soon as I let him. He had a great time building with the micro-sized building blocks!
Not long after that, I got an email asking me if I wanted to do a review for the up-coming holiday season. Of course I said yes! I was sent three sets: the Asian Giant Hornet, the Hercules Beetle and the Praying Mantis. Because the nanoblock sets are meant for kids 8 and older, I gave James the giant hornet set and put him to ‘work’. (I am saving the beetle & praying mantis for stocking stuffers!)
It took James about 50 minutes to put the Giant Hornet set together, but Colin was ‘helping’ and we were watching tv. I am sure it could be done in a little less time. He had a number of left-over pieces, but the hornet looked correct, so I wasn’t too worried about it.
When he handed me the micro-sized insect, he asked me to be incredibly gentle when I photographed it. I really tried … but I broke off a couple of pieces. It was easily fixed, but I was in trouble!
Nanoblocks make great gifts and I would definitely recommend them for any kid (older than 8, of course) in your life!
Have you purchased (or would you) nanoblocks? How do you like them?
