Red, yellow and orange colours of our Wooden Planks bring warmth and character to construction design.

With 100 pcs of wooden planks from Mideer’s City Blocks collection, one can build many small models. For example, consider constructing boats, houses, helicopters and castles. Or what about furniture for a doll house? For advanced skills aim for that cute cat from the cover of the box. The cat, however, will require to buy additional planks. The wood is smoothly polished and does not cause splinters.

Compatible with Kapla blocks – just mix up and give some colour to your construction masterpieces!

How many Wooden Planks do I need?

– To create basic smaller structures: minimum 100-200 building planks
– Medium architectural designs require between 300-450 building planks
– More sophisticated masterpieces ideally work within a range of up to 1000 building planks. Actually no limits here ☺️

Educational values of Wooden Planks

Toddlers can already play with the building blocks at the age of 2-3 years. However, playing with such wooden planks would typically look more like a random stacking game.

Child experts highly recommend guiding and supervising children until 4 years old. If exercised systematically, children are able to reconstruct images into simple models, like a car or a house, by 3.5 years old.

Observe children and decide when the right moment has come to have add-ons to the construction experience. The older the child gets, the more creative and complex building results are.

Wooden planks for kids gradually develop:

– eye-hand coordination and spatial awareness
– socialisation skills and tolerance
– balancing skills, precision and patience
– creativity and imagination

This type of building activity is aligned with the Montessori approach, the Waldorf education and the traditional teachings.
