User questions & answers

Question:	Does this come with a container to store the blocks in
Answer:	I looked at the fisher price farm animals - too bad they don't mention their size - the barn is probably larger, but they would definitely fit & would be cute.
Question:	Is there a chart that has pictures of things that can be built? Something that the child can try to duplicate
Answer:	I have a lot of great grandchildren and do not remember which one I gave this to. I would think a four year old would like it.
Question:	why is the 100 block set less expensive than the 60 block set
Answer:	I can't answer this question since we don't own a Melissa & Doug train track.
Question:	Could anyone provide dimensions for some of the pieces for reference, say, the largest and smallest pieces
Answer:	we have had this finely made toy for a few years, our grandchildren play with it a lot, they are 2, 4, 5. Everything is secure, no loosening after hours of play. And the use the magnet for other objects, like loading trains, doing magnetic puzzles.
