Natural Spaces - Large Mirrored Wooden Blocks - 3 Pieces

This set of three Natural Space large wooden blocks features durable, scratch-resistant mirror panels securely embedded on both sides. Crafted from high-quality plywood, each block offers reflective surfaces that invite curiosity, exploration, and interactive play. These mirrored blocks are ideal for integrating early years STEM concepts into daily learning, as they encourage children to investigate symmetry, reflection, angles, and light. Their large format makes them suitable for building, stacking, and experimenting with mirrored effects in construction-based activities.

Designed to support open-ended exploration, these mirrored wooden blocks provide children with visual feedback as they move, build, and interact with their environment. Children observe their own reflections and those of surrounding objects, supporting visual perception, body awareness, and spatial thinking in a natural, engaging way.

Educational Benefits:

• Promotes observation of symmetry and reflection, supporting early scientific inquiry.
• Builds spatial awareness and geometry recognition through hands-on block play.
• Encourages communication and cooperation as children explore reflections together.
• Supports motor skills and coordination through lifting, placing, and aligning large blocks.

Classroom Activity Ideas:

• Set up a œmirror maze for children to navigate and explore their reflections from different angles.
• Build symmetrical structures and use the mirrors to identify and discuss balance and design.
• Observe natural and artificial light reflections and discuss brightness, angles, and shapes.
• Combine with other materials like coloured blocks or natural objects to examine how reflections change.

Safety & Information:

• Suitable for ages 3+ years
• Each block measures 48(L) x 12(H) x 24(W) cm
• Made from FSC-certified plywood for sustainability
• Scratch-resistant mirrors; not scratch-proof - avoid contact with sharp or hard objects
• Keep out of direct sunlight to reduce the risk of fire from UV reflection; store indoors and away from sun exposure when not in use
