I took our new deluxe version of our Character Building Blocks to play with during our recent extended family vacation. With a host of children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and nieces and nephews filling a large Victorian vacation home near the shores of Lake Michigan, I had lots of help exploring the possibilities of the supplemental blocks. Click on this link to see fun pictures of the many castles, houses, and towers we created, and meet some of the children that I fell in love with while we were there.
