Advantages: good for play building, cheaper than lego

Disadvantages: not as good as lego

Mega blocks.

I have some at work, now I have some at home I went into my local charity shop and bought a boat with added bricks for my grandson.
Mega blocks are a large plastic brick (lego style ) they are brightly coloured attractive bricks fairly easy for a child to fit together.
This boat with bricks cost me 75p I think it cost about £10 in the shops a little cheaper than lego.

These bricks encourage hand eye co-ordination and fire imagination, encorage creativity. These bricks are suitable for ages between 1yr and 5/6 yrs.

These bricks are available in sets of standard bricks or in sets like trucks or the boat I bought.

The bricks are in my opinion not as good as lego the plastic a little softer. I do not think they will be as durable as lego, but saying that the bricks I have at work are quite old and have been played with quite a lot.

I think the lego bricks I have at home (sleepydormouses old ones )I shall give to her for Adrian to play with at his house and keep the megablocks here for playing with on visits when he is old enough.

Mega bloks are a Montreal Canada based company. And I have seen them on sale in several places.
Thank you for reading Mary
