NATURAL PLAY
Children are naturally curious about the world. When given the opportunity to observe,
explore and enjoy beautiful, authentic loose parts and organic elements, children will create
connections to nature as they learn and grow. Natural and authentically-inspired toys provide
children with the materials and connections to their environments that they are inherently drawn
to. When young learners are provided with sensory, hands-on experiences, they will bring the
discoveries they have outside into the classroom.

BLOCK PLAY
Blocks meet a special need that no other toy or learning material does. When a child is given
time to plan, construct and create with blocks, they develop socially, emotionally, cognitively
and physically. Curious young builders explore and learn through creative construction and
deconstruction during guided or open-ended block play.
When young children are given the chance to play in a way that gives them autonomy over
the lessons they learn, the outcomes of their playtime become beautiful, creative displays of
imagination and new skills.

Engineering Failure
Block Science vehicles have a level of complexity
that’s indicative to the system as a whole. Move
the axels too far apart and the vehicle may fail to
follow the radius of a curve, falling off the roadway.
Position them too close together and you may also
experience an engineering failure. These simple
lessons, learned through trial and error, construction
and deconstruction, are built into the Block Science
system to encourage open-ended experimentation
in a play-based, social environment.
Cutouts
Cutouts on the top and sides of the
table provide the perfect place to
create long ramps, extending play
outside the table. The cutout in the
laminate table top has a removable
cover so children can choose when to
incorporate ramps into their builds.

MANIPULATIVES
Playtime with manipulatives is essential to the physical and cognitive growth of a young child.
While they stack, pull, twist and sort, they are developing and strengthening not only their fine
motor skills, but also their identification skills and spatial understanding.
Children find wonder through hands-on experimentation with different shapes, colors and
materials as they discover the differences between them. While playing with manipulatives,
they begin to learn to problem-solve and understand geometric relationships that they can
then connect to the world around them.

SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL
TOYS
Playtime is a crucial part in the success of the development of the whole child. As children play, they
strengthen relationships and develop concepts of self-identity.
Whether guided or unstructured, playtime with social-emotional toys provides children with the
opportunity to learn empathy, regulate their emotions, practice important communication skills and
foster understandings of community and self.
