My kids love Mega Bloks. I love the fine motor skills that can be gained by playing with them. We were able to review Dora’s Garden Gazebo recently and it was a huge hit in our house. Not only did the kids have the Mega Bloks they love so much, but it was all about Dora, another one of their favorites.
Dora’s Garden Gazebo is recommended for children over age 3 and I would have to agree with that. It has several smaller parts that can easily be misplaced by a younger child. It comes with a gazebo, patio table, and blooming sunflower. It also has several garden accessories such as a patio umbrella, planting pot, and a matching water can. Your kids will also find a blue bird and pine tree! Like I said, a lot of pieces are included.
Joley found her favorite piece was the Dora piece. Dora can be built as well with a change of the skirt. That was unfortunately the first piece we lost but we still have a pink shirt for poor Dora.
You can find the Mega Bloks Dora’s Garden Gazebo at Kmart, Toys “R” Us, Walmart, Amazon.com and select Target stores. This set retails for $14.99.
I also wanted to quickly mention the Mega Bloks Family Club. Members who join will receive a printable coupon for $5 off any $30 or more Mega Bloks purchase. You will also receive exclusive offers, contests, sweepstakes, and promotions on Mega Bloks toys and information on new Mega Bloks toys. Finally, you will find an educational and informative blog with great articles, product reviews, and much more.
Thanks to Mega Bloks, I have one Dora’s Garden Gazebo to give away!
