Wooden Blocks & Books STEM Set

The Wooden Blocks & Books STEM Set is a thoughtfully curated resource designed to inspire early learners to explore architecture, engineering, and creativity through hands-on construction and engaging storytelling. This comprehensive kit includes two sets of Jimbloxx Project Kindergarten Blocks and two captivating children’s books—Iggy Peck, Architect and Rosie Revere, Engineer - that introduce STEM themes in a playful and relatable way. This inspiring set bridges the gap between literacy and construction play, providing an immersive way for young learners to explore STEM concepts while nurturing imagination and resilience.

Each Jimbloxx Project Kindergarten Block Set features a wide variety of solid beech hardwood pieces in different shapes and sizes, including straight beams, curved elements, cylindrical blocks, and specialised forms like buttresses and ramps. Based on the traditional unit block proportions of 1:2:4, these blocks naturally lay the foundation for early mathematical and spatial reasoning. The sets are packed in sturdy wooden storage crates, which can also be used as part of construction play. The inclusion of two STEM-themed picture books brings storytelling and design thinking together. Iggy Peck and Rosie Revere offer powerful messages about creativity, perseverance, and the value of thinking differently—making this set a dynamic blend of literacy and engineering play.
