The Recycling Truck set contains 148 pieces and 2 original figures. Playing with Waffle Blocks is great for kids in many ways. The pleasant texture of the material and the flexibility of the pieces are excellent for supporting the development of childrens motor skills, while building the game following the included instructions is fantastic for encouraging the childs logical thinking. Children can also use the pieces to come up with their own creations, stimulating their creativity and imagination.
