We were very excited to try out some Squashblox. We have a reviewer with autism and a toddler so something soft, bright, colourful and creative was welcome. We haven’t been disappointed.

30 years ago if I were to say the word yodel, people would think of a nice chap half way up a mountain in lederhosen doing his ‘yodelling’, however, now when the word yodel is mentioned people shiver with fear, why I hear you ask?
