Personal Experience.
I grew up on some Maple Blocks made from scrap. unfinished, couldn't have
cared less about the color. the shapes were the fun part.

What kind of wood would be good for children's construction blocks -
Cubes, triangles, etc.

I was thinking ash or maple. I might make some by laminating two
woods with contrasing colors.

I will probably leave them unfinished, but is there an acceptable
finish for something that might end up in a toddler's mouth?

Thanks all.
