Outside of cooking, another one of my pasttimes has been hunting down some toys from childhood that I remember. Recently, at our local community center, during playgroup, Baby1 picked up a little block that I remembered from when I was a little child in Taiwan, but the blocks didn't have a label on them for me to discern what they were. Well, a recent hunt and after asking countless other parents about what these blocks were, I spoke with one of the local moms to find that she too knew what I was talking about. These blocks, they have these nubbies all over them, and they connect with one another via these nubbies.
Do you know what I'm talking about?
Well, she suggested taking a look at Parents Magazine toys, and sure enough, I found them: Bristle Blocks! Here's a link via Amazon:

As soon as I found it, I knew this was what I've been searching for, up and down all over the place. I am so getting a box of these for Baby1, and eventually, when he's ready, Baby2.
