The sets are available in 3 different colour schemes.
The magnetic wooden blocks are not just fun
How does the bricks come together so beautifully: We have put magnets inside the bricks. The patterns that will emerge will be aesthetically pleasing and visually appealing as the magnets are invisible to the eye. The hidden magnets will cause wonder as the blocks will get integrated like magic. This toy is made with child safe food grade paint and high-quality wood, perfect for boosting creativity, imagination and enhancing focus and problem-solving skills.
Benefits of block play
The Magnetic Pull of the kids towards Blocks, Why?
The magnetic bricks are super beneficial for kids learning and development.
1) Problem Solving: The problem for children is to creatively arrange the blocks so that they can build a robot, a city or a tower. When children build simple fan or use blocks to create intricate structures like spaceships, they develop critical thinking and problem-solving abilities. They learn to overcome challenges, adapt their plans and think critically.
2) Imagination: The child can build anything just limited by his imagination. They can build fairylands that they have read in books or a giant or whatever they like. This calls for imagining scenes in their mind before converting it into a 3d structure.
3) Self-expression: Blocks offer many ways for young dual language learners to explore, express themselves, and demonstrate what they are learning across languages – Karen Nemeth. Children can express their emotions through their creations fostering a sense of autonomy, persistence and patience. A complete design happens after many attempts which promotes resilience.
4) Stem Learning: Many concepts like length, measurement, comparison, estimation, symmetry, counting, geometry and balance are learned in the most meaningful and natural way.
5) Continuity and Permanence: Block play engages spatial sense and motor abilities; it can be a solo or a group effort. The play can be endless as one can work on multiple models in one sitting.
6) Self-esteem: Children build their ideas, thoughts and dreams into 3d structures by creating, demolishing and recreating to get their perfect design.
Social and emotional growth: The act of playing with blocks can also help toddlers learn important social skills such as sharing and cooperation. Block-play fosters cooperation, negotiation and sharing. Children can follow their own plan or a friend’s idea. Working together to create something that was just in their dreams is a fun way of expressing thoughts.
7) Personal Development: Building structures improve motor skills and hand-eye coordination. When children talk with their peers and elders about the design they are building, they unconsciously develop language skills. Fine and gross motor skills are enhanced as children manipulate the blocks and assemble their designs. The hands-on exploration and experimentation allow children to engage their senses and imagination
8) Cognitive skills are sharpened as they solve problems and build dreams. Critical thinking is involved as kids learn how to balance and construct their ideas. They figure out why a certain structure would topple, which block goes where and how to build the tallest towers and deepest wells. Block play helps children develop spatial awareness, allowing them to understand how objects fit together in space.
