Blocks for Pre-School and Primary School Children

Learning Blocks are teachers, not just toys.

Educators agree that modular blocks teach mathematical ideas of length, fractions, volume, weight, and geometry. They also support children’s knowledge and understanding of the world as they experiment with concepts like design, balance, spanning and building.

Architects like Frank Lloyd Wright have attributed their success to an early love of block play. But blocks also support literacy, which starts with representational learning.

Blocks can assist in story-telling and role play, as children act out their ideas with small or large blocks. Hands-on learning surpasses anything you might try to teach by rote. When children are absorbed in open-ended activity, play itself is the teacher. On top of all this learning potential, blocks are good fun!
