Miniland Eco Blocks - 160 Pieces

The Miniland Eco Blocks: 160 Pieces set is a comprehensive, sustainable construction resource ideal for early learning environments. Suitable for children aged 2 years and over, this large set features 160 lightweight, flexible blocks made from durable bio-plastic derived from sugar cane. As robust as standard plastic but with a significantly lower environmental impact, these blocks offer a meaningful way to introduce young children to eco-friendly materials and responsible play.

With a soft colour palette and smooth texture, the blocks are visually calming and provide a gentle sensory experience. Their large size makes them easy to grip, helping children build stable and imaginative structures while strengthening hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills. This extended set is perfect for group projects, allowing multiple children to collaborate, plan, and build together.

The flexibility of the blocks supports open-ended creativity and problem-solving. Whether creating flat designs or 3D builds, children are encouraged to think critically, work towards shared goals, and develop social-emotional skills through teamwork and communication. Quick to clean and fast-drying, these blocks are a practical and hygienic addition to any early years classroom.
