Trio Blocks

Cason's favorite thing to play with these days are his Trio Blocks. He got them for Christmas two years ago and was really into them when he turned three. Then he went through a Lego loving phase. Then it was all about Imaginext, and now it's back to the Trio Blocks. He builds all day long when we are home. He wakes up and starts clicking blocks together right away. All day long, I will ask him to do something and the response I get is "but Mom, I'm building something!" He will sit for hours building, as soon as he gets something built, he will change it or take it apart and build something else.

He is a good builder, he thinks of his own things to build and they usually come out looking like what he says they are. Here is an airplane he built last fall.



Then he got really into Imaginext toys and if there was a toy he didn't have that he wanted, he would just build it out of Trio blocks. Here is his Serpent Pirate Ship. It has a tail, oars, and a serpent head, just like the real thing.



This day he built the Twin Eagle, an Imaginext plane that he has.



And now that he's really into Mickey Mouse, he builds Mickey stuff all day, every day. This is one of my favorites, it's Mickey with a jetpack on. Notice the Mickey ears.







Most every day, he builds the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, complete with all of the details like the shoe garage, glove balloon, and vegetable patch. This video is him talking about his Clubhouse the other day.
