Grandma wants to spend $100

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
and DD loves building with Jenga blocks. Which set of blocks would you get her for her 4th birthday?

A couple notes -- we do have Magnatiles already, and she does love those. I won't do unit blocks because of the storage issue.

I'm leaning toward a few sets of Citi Blocks:

But I'm open to other suggestions.
thanks,

My DS (builder extraodinaire) enjoys Keva Planks, he is somewhat older at 10, but they really are ageless and beautifully made.

As far as I can tell Citiblocs are a cheaper version of Keva. DS is 5 and still does not really do alot with his keva/kapla blocks. He does like them but is not able to be as creative with them yet as his magnatiles, unit blocks or duplos/legos. I think they will be better when he is a bit older.
