Children get a hands-on introduction to STEM as they replicate real-world designs—from simple train tracks to a towering skyscraper! Kids just look at the photo on an inspiration card and balance wooden planks on top of each other to build a mini airplane, bed, bridge and more—no glue, screws or snaps needed. Set includes 100 planks with smooth, rounded edges...plus 15 double-sided cards that each feature a challenge on front and a possible solution on back. Cards measure 8" x 8" and are color-coded by level of difficulty.

Great resource

Kids loved it! We used it for homeschool centers and it was well loved from age 4-10. They created one card design and then got to create their own!

Bought this product for a 4 year old. He likes to build things with shapes. This product is perfect for building different shapes. It comes with cards with real images and creating those images with the planks is an interesting way to create stuff and it gives a view to real life things. Overall a great product!

Hands on learning

Different ages used this in different ways. The 3 year olds used it more freely while the 5 year olds were focused on details and building things exact. Older children also realized small builds use less planks. Great for use at a table.

What's not to love?!

My Pre-K students love this activity! I love that it allows for creativity, helps fine motor skills, encourages teamwork and perseverance, etc. There are more than enough of the well-sanded, wood planks. Play-based learning for the win!!

Love this!

My students absolutely love these! They are so helpful for building vocabulary and is very easy to differentiate. The kids can write the first sound of the word, write the whole word or write a sentence with the word, then build with the planks. I even use this center in math where they build the picture and then have to count and write how many planks they used. I just love it!
