Natural Architect Blocks Set - 28 pieces
MTA Teachers Resource Catalogue Page: 664
Natural Architect Blocks Set - 28 pieces is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
The Natural Architect Blocks Set - 28 Pieces by Commotion is a beautifully crafted, open-ended construction resource designed to support creativity, spatial reasoning, and early mathematical concepts in young learners. Made from solid beechwood with a smooth natural finish that highlights the wood grain, this set is ideal for loose parts play and purposeful exploration in early years settings.
The set includes 28 nesting blocks across four geometric shapes - squares, rectangles, triangles, and arches. Each shape set nests within itself, with the inner block forming a solid 3D shape. All blocks are carefully proportioned, with the largest block measuring 15 cm and an 8 mm wall thickness for durability. These architect blocks promote fine and gross motor skill development, sequencing, sorting, and problem-solving through hands-on construction. Whether used to build towers, create imaginative small world settings, or explore geometric properties, these blocks support STEM learning, design thinking, and rich language development. With no prescribed way to play, they offer endless possibilities for creativity and discovery.
Educational Benefits:
- Builds fine and gross motor skills through stacking, nesting, and handling
- Encourages spatial reasoning, size comparison, and shape recognition
- Supports early maths through sequencing, sorting, and pattern creation
- Promotes creativity, imaginative play, and vocabulary development
Classroom Ideas:
- Use in construction areas to explore balance and symmetry
- Combine with small world figures for role play and storytelling
- Set up sorting and sequencing challenges by shape or size
- Explore mathematical terms such as taller, shorter, wider, or smaller during building
Safety & Information:
- Age Recommendation: 12+ months
- Largest Block Dimensions: Square and triangle sets - 15 (H) cm; rectangle - 15 (W) cm; arch - 7.3 (H) cm
- Wall Thickness: 0.8 cm
- Set includes 28 beechwood nesting blocks in 4 geometric shapes
- Smooth, natural wood finish with child-safe, non-toxic materials
- Suitable for individual or group use in classrooms, early learning centres or at home
