Construction Play


Imagine - Fit - Build - Create

Let's get creative!


Our construction area features 'Big Block Play' with soft, lightweight foam blocks on a larger-than-life-size scale. A wide variety of shapes fit and connect together through holes and are firm enough to build structures or big shapes. There are no limits to children's creativity with these loose cubes, bricks, cogs, curves, and cylinders.
Loose parts prompt children to create a play space of their own and make their own open-ended fun. Playing with blocks helps children develop cognitive and social skills.
