FAQs
Is the silicone material safe for teething babies?
Yes, the blocks are made from food-grade silicone, which is non-toxic and safe for tactile exploration by infants.
How many pieces are included in the set?
The set includes 8 silicone houses, 8 silicone blocks, and 1 solid bamboo tray.
Can the blocks be used in water or the bath?
Yes, the silicone blocks are water-resistant and can be used for water play, but ensure they are thoroughly dried after use to prevent mold.
What is the recommended age range?
The product is recommended for children from 0 years and up, making it suitable for a wide range of developmental stages.
Is the bamboo tray dishwasher safe?
No, the bamboo tray should be wiped clean with a cloth. Do not put the wooden tray in the dishwasher.
Troubleshooting

Dust or lint sticking to the silicone
Rinse the blocks under lukewarm water and allow them to air dry, or wipe them down with a slightly damp microfiber cloth.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Soft-touch, food-grade silicone is safe for all ages
- Encourages creative and imaginative open-ended play
- Lightweight and easy for toddlers to manipulate
- Includes a solid bamboo tray for organized storage
- Easy to wipe clean and keep hygienic
Cons
- Lightweight blocks may be less stable for very high towers
- Limited number of pieces compared to larger building sets
- Requires surface space to utilize the tray effectively
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the blocks is straightforward: simply place the bamboo tray on a flat, level surface. The blocks are ready for play immediately out of the box. To maintain the quality of the set, wipe the silicone blocks with a damp cloth and mild soap. The bamboo tray should be kept dry; avoid submerging it in water, as this may warp the natural wood. Periodically inspect the silicone pieces for any wear, though the high-grade material is resistant to most common childhood play stressors.
