Playful Little Hearts

I love all their building blocks for children; they're simply magical. Kids are fascinated by the colors and shapes, and you can create so many imaginative games and stories with them. Perfect material for little hands.

Just stunning! Great quality, these have been a great addition to building, they are very large and so versatile.. funny my little had them in a pot for food, used as fairy stones, and then color matching with my 2year old. I highly recommend

Wow! Love these so much. Very versatile set of blocks, clear lucite pieces and have been a great addition to our openended collection. I highly recommend

Beautiful and very fun openended set of blocks. We have really enjoyed the various homes, castles and many other structures. I highly recommend, these are clear, pretty and excellent quality

We’re obsessed with these Castle Blocks! The craftsmanship is beautiful, and the lucite inserts completely transform the way my son plays - light, color, and structure all in one. He builds castles, color-sorts, stacks, and even uses them on the windowsill to watch the colors shine through.
They’re sturdy, perfectly sanded, and the sizes mix so well with our other PLH pieces. Every build looks like a little piece of art, and the lucites catch the light in the most magical way. I can’t recommend them enough - they’re heirloom-quality blocks that inspire hours of open-ended play.

Gorgeous, heavy, well crafted block set. This is crazy high quality and will be an heirloom piece for my daughter to give her children.

Beautiful product!!! Incredible quality. The colors are gorgeous.

Amazing product!!! The colors and quality are incredible!

These are the best blocks we have ever had in our playroom!

We love these heart shaped lucites so much to use as a puzzle and to add to our builds

It was so beautiful and fun! I am a 73 yr. old grandma. I bought this little rainbow for my kitchen window. Rain or shine it brings me a smile every time I look at it. It reminds me of God’s Promise that never again will He destroy the 🌎.

Amazing product. Great gift for my nieces and my sister in loves it too! Lovely open-ended play.

These blocks are Soo beautiful and magical! Perfect for little one’s imagination to flourish :)

I recently had the pleasure of getting my hands on the Wooden Castle Building Blocks from Playful Little Hearts, and I must say — this set has truly captured our imaginations. If you like beautiful, tactile toys with endless creative potential, this may well be one to fall in love with. Here’s what I found, in true maker-style.

⸻

✅ What I Love
• Quality of Material & Finish
The blocks are made from beechwood, which is wonderfully sturdy and smooth. No sharp edges, nice grain, solid weight — you can feel that they’ll last. They also smell like proper wood rather than that cheap “pressed board” scent. Feels like something handmade (even though it’s manufactured) — very satisfying to handle.
• Design & Function
With 21 wooden castle blocks plus a tray for storage, the set gives just enough variety to build castles, towers, fortresses, or imaginative fantasy play setups. The shapes are well thought out, and because they’re consistent in sizing, stacking and balancing are surprisingly forgiving.
Also love the storage tray — makes clean-up easier (and hides temptation when I want some quiet time!).
• Imaginative Play & Open-Ended Possibility
This is where it shines. My child (and I confess, I too) have used these to build so many different ideas: castles with battlements, secret doorways, multi-level fortresses, sometimes even merging with other wooden toys. They also pair nicely with the Lucite cubes that the company shows in other photos (though those are sold separately). The transparent blocks and wood together bring in light and shadow play which is great for sensory/tactile interest.
• Aesthetic & Gift Appeal
These are beautiful toys: muted wood tones, clean design. They look great displayed on a shelf and feel like heirloom-quality. If you’re buying something that will be out in the open, not hidden in a toy box, this one works very well.

These colored loose site cylinders are absolutely gorgeous. I can’t stop touching them nor can my kids. The colors and the quality are amazing. I just placed an order for more items.
