Haba Starter Blocks Set, Extra Large (012 Blocks)

Blocks have been proven to help children learn spatial reasoning.  Additionally, they help cultivate creativity and a healthy imagination. Learning through play is a basic concept that is a constant throughout four influential educational approaches (Froebel, Waldorf or Steiner, Montessori, and Reggio Emilia).  While there may be some differences in what type of play is emphasized, the common theme is allowing children to discover through play. Blocks are perfect in this way, in that children use their imagination to visualize a castle or a house, or a fort, or any kind of structure, then discover shapes and quantities, mathematical perception, spatial dimensions, physical laws, and much, much more, as their imagined creations take shape. All HABA building blocks and systems are compatible with each other.  Haba uses reforested solid, natural, untreated beech wood. 102 blocks in a cotton storage bag Made of sustainably harvested beechwood Wipe clean with mild soap and water Made in
