KAPLA is a natural construction game made up of pine planks. Planks are identical in size, with a unique dimensional ratio of 1:3:5, a formula that makes them strong and easy to place, balance and create with. The brand was invented by a Dutchman who dreamt of one-day building his own castle. Now his KAPLA planks are used to create all kinds of architectural and artistic creations. No glues, screws or tools are required to build sophisticated structures, which stand true thanks to gravity and balance alone. Creativity, logic, dexterity and concentration are all stimulated and challenged when you build with KAPLA. Pine is responsibly sourced in the forests of the south of France and planks are dipped in non-toxic inks.

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.
