Why we LOVE this product!
A good wooden block set is the toy kids use longest, from first stacking to elaborate castles. HABA's are made in Germany from sustainably sourced beech, with smooth finishes and sizes that work with other block sets.
The canvas bag makes clean-up simple.
Two things to weigh: $149.99 is a lot for blocks, and at around 14.5 pounds the full set is heavy for small children to carry.
Description

The HABA Extra Large Starter Set is a 102-piece set of beech wood building blocks in classic shapes and sizes, in natural wood and colored finishes, with a canvas storage bag, for open-ended building from age 1.
What's inside
- 102 wooden blocks in a variety of shapes

How it works
Babies and toddlers stack and knock down; older kids build towers, houses and castles. The blocks are based on a standard 1.57 in. cube, so they combine with other building systems of the same size.
What kids learn
- Early engineering: balance and gravity
- Math: shapes, sizes and quantities
- Fine motor skills: grasping and placing
- Imaginative play: building props for stories

About
Haba
Founded in Germany in 1938 by Eugen Habermaass, HABA has spent generations creating toys designed to support children's growth, happiness, and imagination. The company began with a focus on high-quality wooden toys and grew into a well-known brand offering games, dolls, building sets, puzzles, and play experiences for children at different stages of development.
HABA believes that play is an important part of how children explore the world, develop new skills, and build relationships. Its products are designed to encourage curiosity and creativity, whether children are constructing imaginative worlds with wooden blocks, sending balls through colorful track systems, caring for dolls, or learning to play games together. Many toys also support skills such as coordination, logical thinking, communication, and problem-solving through enjoyable, hands-on experiences.
Quality and thoughtful design remain central to the brand. HABA emphasizes durable construction, carefully selected materials, and environmental responsibility, with wooden toys playing an important role in its heritage.
From a child's first developmental toys to games that bring the whole family together, HABA creates opportunities for meaningful play, discovery, and lasting childhood memories.
