The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Play blocks (from soft fabric cubes to wooden ones) are a versatile development tool for babies. From the sixth month onward, they support skills like grasping, bringing to mouth, stacking, and knocking over. Between 12-18 months, stacking blocks develops hand-eye coordination and patience, while around age 2, simple imitation games (building and knocking down towers) lay the groundwork. The safest options are large-sized (at least 4 cm per side), rounded corners, wood painted with water-based paint, or BPA-free rigid plastic. The AAP generally recommends toys your baby can put in their mouth be large enough not to pose a choking risk.
