alphabet blocks

This set of 28 blocks is crafted from sustainable Michigan basswood, then embossed and printed with a colorful range of non-toxic inks.  The blocks show a variety of animals, numbers, math symbols, and four full alphabets.

28 x 1.75" cubes (44 mm).

Ages 2+.

The ideal companion for our Classic ABC blocks. Four full lowercase alphabets, with two embossed letters on opposing sides. Add numbers, math symbols, and a small petting zoo of hand-crafted baby animals.

Discerning eyes will note how the baby animals look like the offspring of the Classic ABC Block adult animals. The same artist drew the animals on each set, so you'll appreciate the visual consistency. We also used the New Century Schoolbook font and the same classic filigrees on both sets.

Next, take a deeper look at the colors on the Classic ABC set. You'll find its direct compliment on the color wheel for each of the lowercase blocks. This is more than a clever design whim; it makes the lowercase abc blocks a true complement to the Uncle Goose Classic ABC set.

An educational toy for those who want to learn to use Braille to communicate. Use your fingertips to trace the clean, European-style font that accompanies every Braille letter. Feel the attention to detail in every hand-crafted cube. This set features the Uncle Goose Classic ABC color palette.

Uncle Goose strategically devoted one letter to each block. This means you'll discover the same Braille letter debossed on two sides of every block. One debossed side is paired with its font equivalent. We chose a font without serifs to enhance tactile clarity. The other embossed side is Braille only. These blocks are a pleasure to touch.
