Millhouse Hollow Block Storage Unit with Back

The Millhouse Hollow Block Play Storage Unit allows children to build a variety of structures using high-quality giant wooden hollow blocks.

The open-ended nature of the blocks helps children to develop gross motor skills improving balance and coordination. Pupils learn to work together, developing social skills as they participate in cooperative play.

This piece comes complete with 48 blocks of differing shapes including squares, small and large rectangles and ramps. The variety of shapes and sizes allows children to experiment and learn about spatial reasoning and balance while building complex structures. Blocks are coated with child-safe and durable clear lacquer to help maintain high quality over a longer time period.

The unit itself is manufactured in the UK using hard-wearing maple melamine which is durable and easy to clean. Complete with a lifetime guarantee (5 years for the hollow blocks) this classroom staple will excite and interest pupils long into the future.

This clever design includes a Velcro display surface on the reverse of the unit which is sound absorbing offering the ideal solution for noisy play zones. A free removable mirror also attaches to the Velcro on the reverse of the unit which adds depth and dimension to block play providing new ways for children to think about the materials they are working with.

Hollow blocks are a worthwhile investment to any EYFS classroom. Children begin to explore shape and size as they develop their understanding of the world.
