Turn Around Blocks are blocks in Super Mario Bros. Wonder that materialize only when the player looks at them and disappear when they look away, only being solid while materialized. They exclusively appear in the course Raarghs in the Ruins. Like with Hot-Hot Rocks, Turn Around Blocks can appear as small or large blocks, with large blocks being four times the size of small blocks.

Turn Around Blocks serve multiple purposes, both acting as platforms as well as protecting players from Raarghs during the course's Wonder Effect.
