We love these blocks! They are chunky, wonderfully coloured and stack very well. There is a great variety of shapes in the set and the wooden tray the blocks are supplied in is lined with felt so its a good base on which to play. We will never part with them, I can see them being an heirloom for the family.

Why we love blocks

Spatial awareness

Like puzzle pieces, blocks fit together. Unlike puzzle pieces, they can do so in a variety of ways. Learning to predict what fits where is the work of many years. Which pieces will I need? Do I have enough? The expert can see simply by turning the blocks over in her mind.
Small world play

Is your castle missing a section of wall? Does your railway need a tunnel? Never fear! Here is your humble set of blocks to the rescue. Infinitely versatile, blocks provide the canvas upon which to paint your stories.
Pattern-making

Red, blue, red, blue; big, small, big, small. So much of early mathematical thinking is about making patterns. Can you see how it's a small skip from here to odds and evens or the two-times table? A set of blocks like the one above can even illustrate a number's relative size and how it can be combined to make ten.
