The wooden blocks say "ideal for color exploration and light table activities". I personally don't really know what that means. Any teachers or parents want to illuminate what that means?

My son and the other children at his Childcare LOVE these. They put them up to their eyes, stating "you're green, red, etc". They also stack various colors to see how the colors mix. It is fabulous at teaching both color concepts, and the names of colors. It also makes for a lot of silly time, when they put different colors on each eye, or look at eachother stating back and forth what color the other is... It gets the giggles going for sure. They don't usually use them to build large structures with them. They are so much more fascinated with the colors.
