I bought these Taggies soft blocks thinking that they were going to be "soft" blocks that would at least hold the shape of a "block". They do not hold there shape AT ALL! They squish down into whatever shape... and then never "Pop" back (even if you try to re-shape them). I would not recommend these blocks. We bought them for our son because he loves this one "Sassy" foam block that he has. These blocks did not even entice him. He does play with them ocassionally because they have fun things sewn onto them, but he is mostly not interested...
