We simply put them in a corner and stack them. Other than that, I'm at a loss for words. We did make a box out of the blocks and put the extras in it, which was amusing, but we've gone back to stacking them now that my grandson can help!
I purchased two sets for a total of 78 dollars.
The botbee blocks are unfamiliar to me.

Selected User Reviews For Little Tikes Big Waffle Block Set - 18 pieces, Blue/Red/Yellow
I bought Little Tikes Big Waffles for my two boys over 25 years ago, and now my grandson is playing with the same waffles, which are still going strong! I gave it three (3) stars because, since September 5, 2016, I've bought six (6) new sets to supplement my existing stock. 25 years ago, waffles were made in the United States. This year, five (5) of the six (6) sets I ordered were also made in the United States. The most recent set I received was made in CHINA and, unfortunately, is not as good as the others. The plastic is a little stiffer, and I don't think they're as good as the other waffles. These aren't cheap knock-offs. off waffles, but the Little Tike brand, which is sold directly by Amazon. I don't think the CHINA waffles will be able to withstand the abuse that the other waffles have received over time. You Little TIkes deserve to be ashamed of yourselves. For the sake of a few dollars, you're destroying your reputation and brand. br> UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPD My rating has been changed to a five-star rating. When I called Little Tikes to express my dissatisfaction with the CHINA product, I spoke with a woman who identified herself as an "Escalated Incident Specialist. " I told her the story I just told you about. She stated that they used to use CHINA for a short time, but that now all Big Waffles are made in the United States. She told me to send back the CHINA waffles, and she sent me a set made in the United States! Little Tikes' confidence and pride in the United States has been restored thanks to excellent customer service.
They were fantastic at first. My daughters enjoyed playing with them until they became bored, at which point the blocks sat in the corner for a while until they were used again. However, I recently noticed that they were not as durable as they had been when we first received them. I'm not sure if this has happened to anyone else, but it makes me so angry that they're now essentially useless and a complete waste of money. They aren't cheap to begin with, and you'd have to buy multiple sets in order to build larger structures and have more fun with them. So it's a bummer that I bought four sets and they're no longer durable. They were really sturdy and durable when we first got them, and I was able to use at least four of them as the "ceiling" of a small house/tunnel we built without it collapsing. I'm trying to build the same little house I built when we first got them four months later, and they won't stay together for more than a few seconds before caving in. I can't even stack two together without it falling apart, and when I try to make a wall, I can't stack more than two without it all falling apart. I would have given it five stars when I first bought it, but after my experience and only four months of play, I would give it zero stars if I could.
We began with two sets and later purchased a third to allow us to construct larger projects. Our two-year-old daughter adores them and will continue to do so for many years to come. They do take up some space, but we stack them in a corner, connected together, and think it's well worth it for the HOURS of entertainment he gets from them. Three full sets are stacked in the corner in this photograph. It isn't bad at all.
My kids enjoy building with them, so I bought them for them. They have the following advantages and disadvantages in my opinion: Advantages: br>br> br>* They are made to last and are suitable for both indoor and outdoor playbr>* All of my children have enjoyed building houses, mazes, and other structures with them; you are truly only limited by your imaginationbr>* Despite their size, they are light in weight and easy for my two-year-old to carry and build with thembr>* Keep the box; it is great for storing the blocks when not in use and has a carrying handle built inbr>br> br>* If you've ever played with the original large waffle blocks, you'll notice that these are not the same. The layout has changed, and the new blocks don't fit together as well as the old ones do - which has irritated my children (they spend time building and it all comes crashing down with one bump)br>* One of our blocks had a very sharp extra piece of plastic on it - as seen in the photograph This is the first time I've seen a flaw like this in any of our Little Tikes purchases. br>* Expect to spend at least twice as much on two sets. It's difficult to build much with just one set. br>br>Overall, I would buy them again, but the quality is inferior to the originals, as previously stated.
br>We build houses, tunnels, tables, bridges, and whatever else comes to mind, and we try to build it. br>They are made of hard plastic that is extremely durable. It's relatively simple to connect and keep in touch. They're easy to clean, as well as bright and colorful. br>So far, there are no drawbacks to these except that they take up a little room to store and play with. I can see us getting a lot of use out of these for a long time. br>I'd also like to mention that I recently purchased a folding storage ottoman (48"), which fits one set perfectly. I intend to purchase a second to store the other set when it is not in use.
HOUR AFTER HOUR OF PLEASURE. This is by far the best toy I've ever purchased for my two-year-old. Neighboring children, ranging in age from two to ten, enjoy coming over to play with them. My 13-year-olds enjoy building things for their younger sister out of blocks. They frequently construct cages in which to confine her, but that is a different story. It's enjoyable for both children and adults. br>br>What I like about this product is how quickly you can build a house, fence, maze, chair, and so on. It's like an instant fort! Of course, my two-year-old can't build anything yet, but she loves playing in whatever we make. I included photos in my review to show that these blocks are stable enough for small children to stand on (with parental supervision). I had to go out and purchase a second set. There's no way one set will suffice! br>br>At parties, I frequently bring these blocks. They're a great way to break the ice at that awkward children's birthday party where no one knows who you are. br>br>IF YOU WANT TO BUY A FORT OR A GIGANTIC BUILDING KIT, THIS IS THE ONE.
