Tag: Fisher-Price Building Sets

You can use Fisher Price Baby Cubes together with Clipo. However, it is not possible to combine the cubes straight, but it is possible at an angle of 45 degrees. The blue and yellow platforms at the bottom are also Fisher-Price. These cubes have even more building possibilities that normal Peek-A-Blocks.

Robin the Bobbin, the big-bellied Ben,
He eat more meat than fourscore men;
He eat a cow, he eat a calf,
He eat a butcher and a half;
He eat a church, he eat a steeple,
He eat the priest and all the people!

A cow and a calf,
An ox and a half,
A church and a steeple,
And all the good people,
And yet he complain’d that his stomach wasn’t full.

Peek-A-Blocks are baby cubes for kids by Fisher Price brand. A side of the cube is 2 inches. Our middle daughter got these cubes first at a respectable age of 2 years old. We bought her cubes with different sounds – rattles, bells and other noisemakers. And then we got other options. There are cubes of different themes – animals, vehicles, the alphabet. Cubes are usually transparent, for example, you can see insides of cube with an animal from 5 sides.

There are also little attractions – a dog wags its tail when you shake a cube, beads jump around a pig, ducklings spin around with their mother. In general, for kids this is not only the very first building material, but also an entertaining toy.

Usually there are 6 cubes in a set. To further fascinate your child with these set, there are also various tables, sorters and other devices for playing with cubes. For this purpose, we have a musical giraffe. But kids no longer put the cubes in it, they use small cars.

The photo shows our very favorite cubes. For example, a chicken squeaks when you press a button on top and at the same time hides behind a descending shell. The kids really like touching the strings and ribbons on the cubes. Our absolute favourite cubes are those with a bell and a metal ball. And the youngest loves a cube with 3 carrots spinning in it.

Then manufacturers made the cubes with an additional “brush” on 2 sides of the part; now you can connect them to each other and attached to the same bristly surface. I really liked the idea of looking at an object through a transparent wall, and for my growing younger daughters I made noisy jars that they can use to make noise. You can use the cubes to build simple towers and marvel at the contents.
