We have them and use them all the time. In fact, I am putting them out this Saturday as an option for the younger kids during our Engineering Week celebration. If you want to discuss further, I can hook you up with our Early Childhood Educator.

I thought I remembered these super-sized blocks being prototyped about a year back.  Does anybody use these at your institution?  If so, how have these held up, and do you staff the area as suggested?

We were thinking these blocks might be a fun activity/addition at Maker Faire.  Any thoughts welcome.
