Metallic Toddler Construction Set
MTA Teachers Resource Catalogue Page: 555
Metallic Toddler Construction Set is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
Add a subtle shine to playtime with the Metallic Toddler Construction Set, a stunning collection of reflective, sensory-rich construction pieces designed to captivate infants, toddlers and preschoolers alike. Combining Metallic Waves, Metallic Boulders, and Metallic Reels, this open-ended 32-piece set encourages children to explore movement, balance, patterning and imaginative small-world play through materials that are lightweight, durable and visually engaging. Babies are naturally drawn to the smooth curves and reflective surfaces as they grasp, roll, tilt and watch light bounce across the pieces, supporting sensory discovery and early self-awareness. Older children can stack, compare, experiment with height and symmetry, build ramps and towers, and incorporate the pieces into construction areas, STEM provocations, outdoor play and small-world landscapes. Made from sustainable R-ABS recycled plastic, each piece offers a cool, smooth texture and gentle metallic sheen that enhances engagement without overstimulation. As sculptural loose parts, the Waves, Boulders and Reels flow effortlessly between treasure baskets, block corners, tuff trays, calm spaces and dramatic play invitations, supporting rich language, mathematical thinking, creativity and collaborative exploration in early learning environments.
Product Contents
- Metallic Waves (12 pcs). Â Three metallic finishes. Â Approx. 30(L) x 10(H) x 6(W) cm each. Â Made from R-ABS recycled plastic
- Metallic Boulders (12 pcs). Â Four colours: silver, gold, hematite, rose gold. Â Sizes include approx. 8 cm, 12 cm, 16 cm. Â Durable, lightweight R-ABS recycled plastic. Â Suitable for indoor and outdoor use
- Metallic Reels (8 pcs). Â Four colours: silver, gold, hematite, rose gold. Â 4 x large reels (approx. 25 cm diameter), 4 x small reels (approx. 13 cm diameter). Â Smooth, reflective finish for stacking, rolling and threading
Educational Benefits
- Encourages sensory exploration through cool, smooth textures and reflective surfaces that promote visual focus and tactile discovery.
- Supports early self-awareness as babies notice reflections, movement and light play across metallic finishes.
- Builds fine and gross motor skills as children grasp, lift, stack, roll, balance and place the construction pieces.
- Promotes mathematical and spatial thinking through size comparison, patterning, ordering, symmetry, height experimentation and cause-and-effect exploration.
Classroom & Play Activity Ideas
- Add to treasure baskets for infants to explore (under close supervision) alongside natural and fabric items of varied textures.
- Use in construction areas as ramps, bridges, domes, borders or "special pieces" to extend open-ended block play.
- Create repeating pattern challenges using colours and sizes, then invite children to build their own symmetrical structures.
- Set up outdoor rolling races or mirrored tuff-tray explorations to encourage discussions about reflection, shadow, speed and movement.
