Each piece is precisely cut in lengths of 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10cm so they can be mixed and matched. The bark is gently stripped away to reveal a smooth finish. You can still see the rings, knots and other natural features of wood. The bark-less blocks are made in Vietnam because the bark slips away from tropical wood much more easily.

Educational ValueYou can make building blocks fun and educational for your child! Encourage your child to compare and contrast the different pieces so she/he can start to learn basic math concepts. Introduce your child to nature by exploring the shape, color and feel of the blocks together. If your child needs some additional encouragement, guided play has great value. Another way to help guide your child is to talk with them about what they might like to build. A tower? A bridge? A building? A house? A nudge will give your child confidence to have a go. Praise your child’s efforts and then laugh together as you knock the blocks down to start again.
