A Little Bit About Guidecraft

"Guidecraft began in 1964 in a small woodshop, producing 10 items. The company was purchased by the owner's son in 1995, who has continued to develop the line, which now includes over 580 educational toys and furnishings. Our size has changed, but our mission remains the same; stay true to the tradition of smart, beautifully crafted wood products, which allow children's minds and imaginations room to truly wonder and grow."

A Little Bit About the Guidecraft Block Cart & Wooden Block Set

The Guidecraft block cart features heavy duty casters, a sliding front panel for easy storage and unloading, and a chalk board front panel for incorporating writing or drawing into creative block play. Solidly constructed of birch plywood with a tough UV coating.

 A Little Bit About Guidecraft's 34 Piece Unit Block Set

Our Experience with the Guidecraft Wooden Blocks & Block Cart

B was so excited when the blocks and block cart arrived! It only took a minute for me to unpack the blocks, and they were instantly being utilized to build tunnels and buildings for him to race his matchbox cars around and through. B loves to build and create, and this Block Cart also has a great chalkboard front for him to write on and incorporate with his building projects. The front panel lifts for easy un-loading and also makes for a quick clean up after we are done playing for the day (anything that helps us stay clean & organized while encouraging creativity is always welcome in my house)! I love that the cart is on caster wheels, as we can wheel it out into the middle of the playroom when emptiying the blocks for playtime, but it can quickly and easily roll to any area of the room without me having to lift up the heavey contents (another great plus) when we are finished!The Wooden Block Cart & Block Set is a HUGE hit in our house!
Guidecraft's durable quality construction is something I  have come to know and appreciate. I love it when I find a great family friendly company that cares about the quality of their merchandise, the consumer, and my children!
