This is a gorgeous set of 16 rubberwood blocks in 4 different shapes (square, rectangle, triangle and semicircle) containing beads, transparent acrylic, coloured sand and water/glitter filled pockets. 
 
The Sensory Blocks will promote observation in the wider sense, as all the shapes follow the same convention of colour and shape. So for example, regardless of the contents of the block the triangles are always green. The combination of smooth wood exterior and the brightly coloured sensory centre makes a fascinating component with a multitude of educational possibilities for use with children of all ages.  They are perfect for building, comparing, shape recognition, colour mixing and for use on a light box.
 
Play with these blocks supports the following areas of learning:
• Personal Development - sensory
• Physical Development - construction
• Understanding the World - observation
• Understanding the World - colour & sound
• Maths - shape & space
• Communication & Language - descriptive language
