SMARCKS are the newest way to begin to teach your child at an early age. Smart Blocks, Inc. has taken an object that many children love--building blocks & expanded to become SMARCKS (Smart Blocks) that can talk & teach your child a variety of topics including Colors, Manners, Letters, Spelling, Counting, Shapes, Nursery Rhymes, Music & Math.

There are currently 7 SMARCKS sets available. The first set is the starter set which comes with 70 non-talking blocks of various colors and sizes, 1 blue talking block and sturdy container to keep it all in. The next 6 sets contain 3 talking blocks which talk & teach about various subjects, to be used with the initial SMARCKS set. The sets are progressive starting with Colors and Good Manners for age 1+ through the Amazing Math set for age 5+.
We were given the starter set and a few more talking blocks to try. My boys were so excited when they saw the bold blue box full of SMARCKS  talking blocks. Having 3 boys, I know first-hand how they love to play with blocks and then pinnacle, knocking the whole tower down. There was a difference this time when playing with the SMARCKS, due to the added elements of talking and learning, there was no knocking down right away, they kept building and building. As a mom, I am super impressed that there was a lot of science & technology that has gone into developing these blocks and making them educational. Since we already had a bunch of blocks too, I was excited to find that SMARCKS will fit onto Lego Duplo Blocks & Mega Blocks. Of course the talking blocks can only recognize and talk in regards to SMARCKS, but at least they all fit together.

This week I held a playdate at my house and I broke out the SMARCKS. All the kids loved them, they played for a while and we were able to visit, us moms. As President of the local Mothers of Multiples chapter here, we have lots of kiddies to test things out against, from as little as 1 to my twins age of 5, they all had fun with the SMARCKS. They all had a favorite too, the SMARCKS song block. In my opinion, this is a MUST-HAVE toy for young ones.

The Smart Blocks website has all the details of how everything works and some puzzle solving help to get the most out of your SMARCKS! You will be amazed at all the things they can teach your children, so it is no wonder that SMARCKS won the Dr. TOY Best Pick and Parent's Choice awards in 2010.

They offer a 90 day satisfaction guarantee so you can try them out to see if they fit your child.
I am sure you will be as amazed as I am how much use out of these blocks you will get.
My kids are playing with them several days a week.
These would make a GREAT Easter gift, order them now!
