PlanToys 40 Unit Natural Blocks This 40 block set makes a great starter kit, and includes 6 different shapes, in a smooth natural wood finish. We love wooden building blocks: they're great for fine motor skills, hand-eye co-ordination, and encourage your child to use their imagination and extend their vocabulary skills. However, your little one will be having far too much fun building tall towers, lookouts, castles, homes and shops to realise how much they are learning through play! These PlanToys 40 unit blocks will be a welcome addition to any Montessori setting, as children use their open-ended nature to use these blocks as kitchen ingredients or tools to aid counting and problem solving. Use them as a set on their own or combine with other block sets to construct bigger and better buildings. This fab wooden block set is made from solid rubberwood, making a it a great ethical gift for a child. Suitable from age 2+. Average unit size is 3.5cm Sensory toy: fine motor skills, hand-eye co-ordination problem solving Schema: Positioning, ideal for children who enjoy putting things in order. Connection, for children who like to discover how things connect and disconnect. PlanToys are the original eco toy maker leading the way in sustainable manufacturing and quality wooden toys to stimulate young children. PlanToys use rubber wood from trees that no longer produce latex and would otherwise be burnt. They also create some toys from 'eco Planwood' which is made from another waste product, the roots of the rubber trees. This sustainable wood source is then kiln dried without the use of chemicals, glued together with PlanToy's own e-zero formaldehyde free glue and dyed with water based dyes to create a wonderful selection of eco friendly wooden toys.
