Product overview

The Playground Engineering & Design Building Set from Learning Resources invites young children to think like engineers by snapping together pieces to build playground structures. Following the illustrated Challenge Cards, students recreate equipment such as a twisting slide, a swing set and a seesaw, or invent playground designs of their own.

The set contains 104 pieces, 10 double-sided Challenge Cards and an Activity Guide with reproducible worksheets built around the engineering design process. Building and rebuilding helps children strengthen fine motor control, spatial reasoning, sequencing and the ability to follow step-by-step instructions.

Because it needs no screens or batteries, it fits easily into STEM centres and small-group work in early-years and lower-primary classrooms, and it can be used by a single child or shared between pairs and groups.

    Tree House Engineering & Design Building Set

    The Tree House Engineering & Design Building Set (LER 2844) from Learning Resources introduces early engineering through a tree house theme. Children use platforms, decks, leaves and other tree house parts to construct structures, then test and re-engineer them to meet a goal. The set includes more than 40 tree house pieces, a character figure, five Challenge Cards and stickers for decorating, along with an activity guide containing a printable planning sheet and an outline of the Engineering Design Process. The decoration element adds an art component, making the kit suitable for STEAM lessons. In the classroom, the Challenge Cards give young learners a clear problem to solve, while the planning sheet encourages them to sketch ideas, build, investigate what works and improve their design, reinforcing problem solving, investigation and design skills.

    Clixo Mars Rovers Pack – 30 pcs magnetic building set

    The Clixo Mars Rovers Pack is a flexible magnetic construction set with a space-exploration theme. Its pieces glow in the dark, and the pack adds all-terrain wheels, fire blasters and custom parts so children can build rovers, motorcycles and space drones to explore imaginary Martian landscapes. The pack contains 30 pieces in 12 different Clixo shapes. Each flexible piece has embedded magnets that connect to one another, letting children fold flat 2D shapes into 3D models. Swappable axles widen the range of vehicles that can be built, and the pieces are compatible with other Clixo packs. Open-ended building with Clixo supports spatial reasoning, hands-on experimentation and creative thinking, making the pack a good fit for maker corners and space-themed STEAM activities in lower-primary classrooms.

    Bosch Accessories Set (toy tools)

    This Bosch-designed accessory set from Theo Klein lets young children dress up as real tradespeople. It includes toy work gloves, bright yellow goggles and ear protectors, so children look fully equipped while they pretend to carry out building and DIY jobs. The items are toys for role-play and imitation games only and do not provide any real protective function. They pair naturally with Klein's Bosch toy tool range, such as toolboxes, workbenches and toy drills, to create a complete pretend workshop. In early-years settings, the set supports imaginative play, conversation about jobs and workplace safety routines, and cooperative play in construction or dramatic-play corners. It is suitable for children aged three and over.
