But with the advent of the OLLO Explorer curriculum, learning robotics has never been easier, more affordable or more fun! Still not convinced? Find out more about the OLLO Explorer kit on our website or take a look at just the robots covered in this course:

Who Is Timberdoodle? – Special Edition Vodcast

Behind The Scenes

  • Getting everyone filmed was tricky, but hearing each of their perspectives was well worth it.
  • If you know a Timberdoodle employee who chose not to participate, feel free to give them a hard time about that, we are!
  • The most difficult part was trimming the vodcast down to a manageable length.

#0013 – CitiBlocs

Newly added to Timberdoodle’s Core Curriculum, CitiBlocs are brilliant in their simplicity. Precision cut from renewable New Zealand Pine, any child who can stack blocks is ready to enjoy these. At the same time, we’ve yet to find an adult who won’t feel challenged by some of the intricate pattern ideas. Most spend hours creating, assembling, knocking over, and trying again.

Ready to buy? Shop http://www.timberdoodle.com/CitiBlocs

Citiblocks have already won twelve prestigious industry awards for their innovative design and sturdy construction. Among them are Creative Child’s 2009 Preferred Choice Award, Dr. Toy Best Vacation Children’s Products Award, iParenting Outstanding Products Award, Mr. Dad Seal of Approval, an Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold Seal Award, Toy of the Year 2009 by Parenting Magazine, and 2009 Good Housekeeping “Best in top 7 picks”.

Behind The Scenes

  • The kid footage was actually taped at a family reunion – these are our cousins’ daughters.
  • The new catalog mails tomorrow. We’re excited!
  • Looking for another idea for CitiBlocs? We took them to a Christmas party where the young (and young at heart) built towers as high as possible, then shot them down with Hot Rocketz. Lots of fun!

CitiBlocs Snake

From Our Store:

“If you agree with the sentiments of Albert Einstein, that “Everything should be made as simple as possible,” and you long to fill your home with uncomplicated toys that require no batteries and make no noise, other than the ear pleasing clatter of wood against wood, then you’re in for a treat…” Buy CitiBlocs Now Here!

#0012 – Wedgits

Why is it so difficult to describe Wedgits? I guess it is because they are so unique. They are simultaneously square and wedge-shaped. They stack simply as orderly pyramids or can be wedged into elaborate creations. So easy a baby can successfully stack them in minutes, yet so complex that adults are still playing with them days later.

Behind The Scenes

  • Devyn’s baby sister Hayden stole the show this week with her huge grin!
  • Grandpa also makes a cameo appearance. He used Wedgits during therapy time after his stroke, and as you can see, was pretty tickled with his accomplishments.
  • Hayden loves seeing babies, and in the closing clip her excitement is because she caught a glimpse of herself in the video camera, and was delighted!

Baby Hayden with Wee Wedgits

From Our Store:

Wedgits have long been a hit in the homeschool arena, to say nothing of their use in schools, hospitals, and occupational therapy centers across five continents. As an open-ended manipulative, Wedgits have always had kid-appeal because the rainbow-colored blocks seem to spontaneously align themselves in a myriad of forms…” Buy Wedgits Now Here!
