A selection of smooth wooden building block shapes and crystal-clear colourful gem cubes, packed in a sturdy wooden storage tray with guidelines in the plywood base for easy tidying away.

The blocks are carefully designed to be open-ended and varied in style, to encourage creative construction for older children or as a simple stacking and balancing activity for younger children. The beautiful coloured gem squares are a lovely imaginative play addition (windows, doors or colourful decorations) which is ideal as a prompt for using descriptive language.

The 40-piece set includes 25 beechwood blocks, 14 colour acrylic gems and a beechwood tray with plywood base.
