You were in the wrong.
1. Blocks aren't for throwing, especially not indoors
2. When your child throws something - HE picks it up, not you.

Because confronting someone/just being direct is honest and easy. "Here is what is happening and here is what I need you to do."

Tell my own charge, loud enough for others to hear, "we don't play with those toys like that" pretending that my charge asked or wanted to throw them.
Or, I would pretend that I didn't know that the parent saw the child throwing the toys and say "oh just wanted to let you know that your child seems to be playing a little rough with the toys" in a very casual polite way.
Both of these are terrible ideas. You're not being clever, you're being obviously passive aggressive. I hate it when I hear moms or nannies talk that way..."oh Larla, see? We dont run around at story time like that." Ugh. You're as bas as OP!

You are passive aggressive. I see no problem with a nanny or mother demanding that this situation be stopped immediately. In fact, I have greater respect for it than your fearful ways.

I commend her. She was not only taking care of her charge by getting you to remove you son but helping every other child in the playroom. The only thing you did right, OP, was stay silent and take your brat out.

Nice try, OP.
Hollow blocks can hurt someone. Your child is not athletic and aggressive, he's a spoiled bully. Control him.

Wow. I wish I could meet op in real life. She seems incredibly narcissistic.
