We have never owned a set of stacking, nesting blocks! The proper Montessori ones are too expensive for me. I was thinking of getting the ABC ones by Melissa and Doug (on sale at Gummylump. Does anyone have any ideas?

HI Marilyn, I don't have these from Gummylump but I do have something similiar from Montessori N Such. I know the Montessori pink tower does not have the pictures and such on the sides, nor does it nest, but I think the nesting kind are an acceptable alternative. Sometimes the "real thing" is just too expensive for us so we have had to make do.

I don't know if this helps, but Montessori N Such also has a "pink" tower that is natural in color and is $20 cheaper.
