More about Lindenwood:
Embossing
What
makes these blocks special are the two embossed letters on each block. The
embossing process gives depth and detail to each block and appears to be
carved. Actually these designs are pressed into the wood under immense
pressure.
Beveled Edges
Eliminates sharp corners and make the blocks more comfortable to hold.
Classic Styling
Based on the classic ABC blocks made by the Embossing Company of Albany NY,
whose founders, the Hyatt brothers, patented the invention of the embossed ABC
block. ABC blocks pay homage to the first set of American alphabet blocks made
by the Hyatt brothers (who also invented celluloid which led to the explosion
of plastics).
Non-Toxic Inks
Made from child-safe materials, especially non-toxic inks. Tested regularly and
always surpass national and international standards on ink safety. Of course
there is very little ink on our blocks, so rest assured that a child will not
be exposed to harmful substances even if they should consume an entire set of
blocks. The same is true for your household pets who may even chew on the
blocks
Numerals
The ABC blocks also feature numerals 0 to 9 and math symbols (+ - X, etc.). As
children begin to recognize letters they will also learn their numbers. Later
on they may use the blocks to form equations just as they are spelling words.
Numeral Names
Names printed of each numeral beneath the number so that a child can learn how
to spell these words.
Uppercase or Lowercase Letters
Standard ABC blocks are available with either uppercase or lowercase letters.
Basswood
Our blocks are made from basswood which is grown around the Great Lakes.
Basswood is ideal for making blocks because it’s light-weight, light-colored
and odor-free. The basswood is farmed for manufacturing on industry owned
land. Lindenwood is committed to environmentally-appropriate manufacturing.
