diaperjoys Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Still questing for a base ten set...does it matter whether the set is interlocking or not? Which style do you prefer?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boscopup Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 I got interlocking so I can put ones together and not have them fall apart. I have C-rods also, and those are NOT interlocking or notched. Love my C-rods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LovinHS Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 I bought the interlocking ones thinking they would be great because you could actually "build" a rod or flat. Well, I should have taken into account my ds who loves to build a little too much. Every time I brought them out he thought it was break time - he would just hook them together and not really pay attention to what we we supposed to be doing. Maybe the regular ones would be enough "less fun" to actually get some math done... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a set of old wooden ones, and I do like the fact that they are boring looking and do not hook together like legos. That said, ds does still pull them out and use them to build tall buildings, but usually not during math time. :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iafrmgrl77 Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 I have the entire set of MUS, colorful, interlocking blocks, as well as a plain old set of wooden base ten blocks. We don't do MUS anymore, and guess which blocks I always pull out...You got it! The "boring" ones! I kept the MUS blocks thinking we would surely use them, but I think they will be going leaving our home shortly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
