This adorable spatial relationship skills development set consists of 25 buildings of 5 different heights (1-5), 4 cars and 4 trees. With the 5 x 5 grid base, different types of games are suggested including 2-D positioning, height sequencing, pattern finding, simple mathematics, visual interpretation, logical skills development and more. Made from beech wood and birch plywood. Durable and water-proof game book included. The building blocks are colour-coded too so they are easily identified, and underneath they are keyed, so they fit together in a particular way. They are also clearly marked with numbers and dots and are size-proportionate with the yellow building being the smallest - single unit block and the red a quad unit block. There are so many uses for this set, with counting, observation and fine motor development at the heart of all activities, but there are also many more things to do which are explained within the excellent pictorial user guide; for example, making a sequence, according to height, stacking different buildings to make the same ‘pre-set-height’. Making a city where cars can pass between the buildings and of course free play too is possible. With so many pieces and opportunities, setting and solving even more complex tasks is possible with this set. A fun resource, with highly focused challenges which will help children with their understanding of size, proportion, spatial-awareness and logic. The board measures 38cmW x 38cmD.

A set of 12 wooden cylindrical double ended blocks; 7 with different materials and 5 with different surface textures. Ask children to identify the right materials or textures by only touching the pieces and to match the pieces to those on the board.

The tray measures 20cmW x 20cmD x 5cmH.

These translucent tactile seashells offer children sensory experiences like sight, sound and touch to explore and engage. Use the shells with a light box or create imprints in clay and dough. They're also ideal to teach early number concepts, such as sorting, matching, comparing, sequencing, patterning and counting. The shells measure 5.5cm wide. Includes 6 colours and 6 different tactile surfaces. Comes stored in a plastic jar.

What’s inside the box? Just reach in and find out. The sturdy wooden box has two holes to allow children to use both hands to guess the object inside by touch alone. As children explore they increase tactile awareness, memory, vocabulary and communication skills. Made from birch plywood. Note: Accessories are not included. The box measures 33cmW x 28cmD x 22cmH.

The red double decker Learning Bus is a firm favourite for children wanting to learn through play. With its space for 20 passengers, the opportunities for counting, sorting and arranging are endless. Counting to ten and then having any additional passengers moved up to the top deck is realistic to real-life and adds to the understanding of ‘base 10’ as a key mathematical concept. Components for the set are colour-coded and an icon on the top of the people counters tells you if the person represented is a man, woman, child, elderly or even disabled. A flip book with number challenges helps the children to remain focused upon the task in hand. And for an additional level of mathematics there are two dice which when thrown, set a task to move characters from upstairs to down or visa-versa, thus introducing the notion of adding or taking away to reach a solution. A wonderful resource which sets a real-world challenge and encompasses so much in terms of the basic mathematics being covered. The bus when in double decker form measures 32cmL x 18cmW x 15cmH. Made from European beech.

Join the links to create chains while learning to identify colours and practice sorting, patterning and sequencing. Playing with links is great for encouraging hand-eye coordination. Children can experiment with different designs and lengths. Cooperating with other children helps to create bigger designs faster. The links snap together easily for young children. Each link measures 7cmL.

96 bears in 4 colours, 3 sizes and 3 weights. This bear family is related by weight. 2 baby bears = 1 mother bear. 1 mother = 1 baby = 1 father bear. 3 baby bears = 1 father bear. Suitable for colour, weight and size recognition, sequencing and counting activities.

These multicoloured counters are a great way to introduce children to sorting, sequencing, developing number concepts, improving vocabulary and discovering probabilities. The ridged edges are designed for easy stacking and can be used for a range of hands on activities and math projects. There are 25 each of 10 solid colours. Each counter measures 38mm in diameter.

The Thermic Tiles are used to cultivate the ability to discriminate thermic qualities. Consists of a wooden box divided into six compartments containing six pairs of 8cm x 4cm tiles made from felt, wood, steel, cork, glass, and marble. The child learns to identify and match with the exact pair using their hands. They can also arrange the tiles from warmest to coolest by touching them with their hands.

Thermic tiles are a significant activity for children as there is no outside force causing the tablets to differ in temperature.

• Refine a child’s thermic sense
• Aids in the development of visual discrimination
• Develop order and hand-eye coordination
• Develops thinking skills as they learn how and why the temperature is different for each pair of thermic tiles
• Enhance logical thinking and decision-making
