Wooden Building Blocks for Kids: Natural, Rainbow + Cork
Wooden blocks set no rules: a tower today, a bridge tomorrow, a stable for the animals the day after. While stacking, children discover almost in passing what balance and stability mean. In this collection you will find blocks from Bauspiel, Wooden Story, Frechling and Korko.
The systems compared
- Wooden Story offers large quantities for free building, such as the Rainbow blocks In Sack with 100 blocks or the Natural blocks in sack.
- Bauspiel combines wood with luminous blocks and window pieces, for example in the Colour Staircase with Luminous Blocks, the Optic Blocks or the Fairytale Windows. The X-Bricks come in sets of 16 or 48.
- Frechling's Loggos are wooden blocks made of beech or of beech and walnut, in sets of 6, 22 or 33 blocks.
- Korko makes blocks from cork: Small, Tall and Giant Architects with 20, 40 or 60 blocks. Read more in our article on Korko cork blocks.
Care and combining
A dry or slightly damp cloth is all you need for cleaning; the blocks should not go in water. Wooden blocks mix well with figures, play cloths and other systems. Why wood has proven itself as a play material is explained in why wooden toys. You will find magnetic sets and other building systems under building blocks, and kits for tinkering under wooden construction kits.
