Fruits 3D Specimen Blocks – Real-World Learning Through Hands-On Discovery
Introduce children to the fascinating world of natural science with our Fruits 3D Specimen Blocks – a vibrant, hands-on resource designed to support inquiry, observation, and curiosity in line with the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF). Each block features a real fruit specimen encased in clear, durable resin, allowing children to safely explore the colours, textures, shapes, and structures of nature’s healthiest foods.
These beautifully preserved specimens are perfect for sparking conversation, supporting sensory learning, and deepening children’s understanding of healthy living, sustainability, and the natural world.
EYLF-Aligned Learning Outcomes:
-
Outcome 2: Children are connected with and contribute to their world
These blocks help children explore where food comes from, develop a connection to nature, and appreciate the role fruits play in health and sustainability. They inspire curiosity about the environment and encourage respectful interactions with the natural world. -
Outcome 4: Children are confident and involved learners
Handling and observing real fruit specimens encourages inquiry, exploration, and scientific thinking. Children become active participants in learning as they sort, classify, compare, and ask questions. -
Outcome 3: Children have a strong sense of wellbeing
These blocks can be used to initiate discussions around nutrition, healthy choices, and the benefits of eating fruits—supporting physical wellbeing from a young age. -
Outcome 5: Children are effective communicators
As children describe the characteristics of each fruit—its colour, seeds, textures, or name—they build vocabulary, develop observation skills, and learn to express ideas clearly.
