Smarcks Talking Building Blocks Review & Giveaway

We were sent the 70 pc set of Smarcks for review which contains 70 non talking blocks and 1 blue talking block along with  Red, Green, & Yellow Color Block Set, Purple, Pink, & Orange Color Block Set, Counting, Shape, & ABC Block Set , and the Math Block Set.

These blocks are so different than any blocks I have ever seen. These blocks have buttons hidden on the bottom that can recognize colors, sing nursery rhymes, teach counting & adding , sing the abc's, play music, &  have good manners while they do it all. They go way beyond the normal tower building blocks.

Hailee caught on quickly and became friends with her blocks, sounds silly but they were talking to her and she was talking back. They tell her thank you for choosing them. She learned all the songs they sing and cheats to push the buttons just so they will sing to her. These blocks are the neatest toy we have owned.

Each block has different shapes on the top which allows the buttons to be pushed differently by each different block.  Each one also has a ticklish spot and they laugh when you find it.

Hailee enjoys playing with her Smarcks daily. She is still learning how to make certain songs play. She is at the stage where she is learning to spell and Smarcks has helped her spell. She learned to spell Red & Yellow. The website has a puzzle secrets section which gives direction on how to get each block to play differently.

As we know most kids that have talking toys can drive us crazy by making the toy repeat itself over & over again. No need to worry about with these blocks. The block will not repeat itself like that! Yay!

Smarcks can also be used with full size Mega Blocks and Lego Duplo blocks but Smarcks can only recognize other Smarcks blocks.

One of my readers will recieve Smarcks 70 Piece Building Block Set along with
Red, Green, & Yellow Color Block Set
Purple, Pink, & Orange Color Block Set
Counting, Shape, & ABC Block Set
Math Block Set
