White-Green Checkered Block

White-Green Checkered Blocks (also called Spring Blocks, Bounce Blocks, or Bouncy Blocks) are a type of springy Block that propel Mario and friends higher when jumped on similar to the Jump Blocks. White-Green Checkered Blocks require timing to spring higher into the air by pressing at the right moment.
==History==
===New Super Mario Bros. Wii===
White-Green Checkered Blocks are first seen in New Super Mario Bros. Wii. They are first seen in World 5 being semi-common appearing more towards the end of World 5, they also appear slightly more commonly in World 6 and World 7. They can be used for reaching higher ledges and obtaining secrets. Players need to press at the right time when they jump on a White-Green Checkered Block.
===Mario Party 9===
White-Green Checkered Blocks reappear in Mario Party 9 in the minigame Upward Mobility. They function the same way they did in New Super Mario Bros. Wii and players need to make high jumps to the higher sets of blocks to progress, once again players need to press at the right moment to make high jumps however, the timing is slightly stricter. The player that reaches the top first is the winner.
==Trivia==
*As of New Super Mario Bros. 2, it seems the Jump Blocks have replaced the White-Green Checkered Blocks as the springy blocks again.
