CONSTRUCTION BLOCKS (30PK)

Let's face it, we all love a bit of cheekiness, and these Construction Blocks are the slightly rebellious, totally gorgeous best friend your EYFS or KS1 construction area has been waiting for. You get a whopping 30 blocks, a beautifully curated selection of cubes, arches, and simple shapes, all begging to be stacked. Forget those synthetic nightmares; these are made from lovely, robust beech plywood with a high quality lacquer, looking effortlessly chic in their natural wood finish. They're super-sized (from a modest 7.2cm up to a grand 30cm), big enough for epic building projects that'll make the local architect jealous. But here's the genius bit: they're light. Seriously, even your smallest builders, those magnificent little humans aged 3+, can handle these without needing a forklift. That means less heavy lifting for you and more independent, tactile construction activities for them. Watch as they naturally dive into design and mathematical thinking, crafting models and concepts that are way more interesting than whatever the curriculum says they should be doing. Just keep them indoors, please they're far too fabulous for the great British weather. Features Natural Beech Plywood: Aesthetically pleasing and tough enough to withstand even the most enthusiastic EYFS building demolition. Set of 30 Shapes: Provides a fantastic range of cubes, arches, and varied blocks to encourage complex constructive building and imaginative structures. Lightweight Design: Easy for smaller hands to manage, promoting independent and safe construction play right from the Early Years Foundation Stage. Large Scale Sizes 7.2cm to 30cm: Ideal for creating impressive structures and practising early spatial awareness in Primary Key Stage One settings. High Quality Lacquer Finish: Ensures durability while keeping that beautiful natural resources look that enhances any learning area. Benefits Promotes Design and Creativity: Provides the perfect construction resource for children to realise ambitious architectural visions and imaginative concepts. Develops Fine and Gross Motor Skills: Handling, stacking, and balancing the blocks is brilliant for refining muscle control and coordination essential for early EYFS development. Encourages Mathematical Thinking: Children naturally explore concepts like symmetry, measurement, balance, and early geometry during constructive play. Supports Collaborative Play: The large size and variety of blocks encourage communication, negotiation, and turn taking during shared group construction activities. Builds Problem Solving Skills: Working out how to stop the tower from wobbling or how to span a gap is real-world physics in action for Primary KS1 learners.
