Wooden Lacing & Stacking Shapes Activity Set (3Years+)

This multi-functional early learning resource encourages children to explore shapes, colours, sequencing, and patterns through lacing, stacking, and matching activities. Designed with brightly coloured wooden blocks, sturdy laces, and pattern cards, this set supports both independent learning and collaborative play.

The open-ended design makes it ideal for inclusive learning environments, allowing children of diverse abilities to participate at their own pace. Whether children are developing fine motor skills through lacing, exploring problem-solving through pattern cards, or engaging in imaginative construction, the set provides opportunities for every child to succeed.
