PlanToys Castle Blocks - 40 Pieces

Let your imagination run wild with the PlanToys Castle Blocks - 40 Pieces. Build a protected fortress surrounding your kingdom with gates, stairs, turrets, and towers to house your king, queen, knight, and horse. This engaging set includes a king, a queen, a knight and horse alongside the many fortress pieces, including figures, animals, and castle features. As children design, balance and rework their buildings, they promote the development of mathematical skills and spatial relationships, foundational for architectural design. Sustainably made in Thailand using chemical-free rubberwood, formaldehyde-free glue, organic pigments, and water-based dyes, this beautifully crafted set supports imaginative storytelling, collaborative play and rich problem-solving while adding a timeless wooden resource to your construction and dramatic play areas.

Educational Benefits

• Strengthens spatial awareness and early geometry as children plan, stack and arrange walls, stairs, turrets and towers.
• Supports mathematical thinking through counting pieces, comparing sizes and noticing balance and symmetry.
• Encourages rich oral language and storytelling as children bring the king, queen, knight and horse to life.
• Promotes social development as children negotiate roles, share pieces and collaborate to build a shared kingdom.

Classroom & Play Activity Ideas

• Set up a "castle design station"  with paper and pencils so children can sketch plans before building their fortress.
• Invite children to retell classic fairy tales or invent new stories using the king, queen, knight and horse as main characters.
• Integrate early maths by asking children to sort pieces by shape, count towers or compare the height of different builds.
• Combine the castle blocks with loose parts and natural materials to create moats, forests and village scenes around the fortress.
