The original
Block-N-Roll™ toy was created in Silver Lake, New Hampshire in 1995 by
five young brothers, Adrien, Aaron, Damien, Daniel, and Curtis Yule.
They took used Brio' straight track sections to create a long ramp. One
end was elevated on their sofa, and the other end ramped down to the
floor. They used LEGO®, DUPLO®, wooden blocks and anything else they
could find to support the track sections. They then raced marbles down
the grooves in the tracks. Intrigued with his sons' creations, their father created various marble maze prototypes. He used wood, Styrofoam™, plastic and whatever else was at hand. From these beginnings Block-N-Roll™ evolved into the action packed construction block system you have today. Due to the efforts and enthusiasm of many people and companies, Block-N-Roll™ is now sold around the world. The name Block-N-Roll™ was created when Mr. Yule was listening to the radio one day. The disc jockey came on the air and claimed that 'this is going to be a great day for rock-n-roll'. Mr. Yule rhymed rock with block and the name Block-N-Roll™ was born. Block-N-Roll™ can be pronounced in any language around the world, and has immediate product association with the worlds best marble maze construction block system!!!
*Block-N-Roll™ is made in the USA. |
