Many people complain that the pens that come with ThinkBlocks are too thick to write on the medium blocks. The suggestion is to get finer tip pens. And color would be nice too!

We have heard this idea and taken action! The next evolution of block kits will have four colors (Black, Red, Green, Blue) and are also fine tip. Great Idea! thanks for improving ThinkBlocks!
We have been using ThinkBlocks in conversations, meetings, strategy sessions, learning experiences, etc. to construct what we're thinking as we discuss it. Usually, this involves a simple act that makes a big difference. We often don't even write on the blocks, but just use them as objects to differentiate one idea we're talking about from another; to specify which parts are included in one strategy versus those in another; to set a perspective from which to view the conversation in the moment; or to look more deeply at a relationship between two variables. I think that would benefit a lot from seeing a video that presents a "typical" conversation without ThinkBlocks and then to see the same conversation with them. It would demonstrate the dynamic use of ThinkBlocks...
The ThinkBlocks are a fractal which is important but the small blocks do not have a reflective side, signifying that any idea can be made into a unique perspective.
