Indoor Blocks by Community Playthings

 

unit hollow blocks modularity community playthings louise kool collection reggio inspired 

 

The simple yet revolutionary Unit Blocks is how Community Playthings got started in 1950. They were built to last and carefully crafted from solid maple to be proportionate to each other:  they all share the same modular dimensions.

The easy-to-grasp Hollow blocks are a more recent addition. Hollow blocks inspire imaginations and hard work with large muscles allowing them to build their own large play structures.  

All Community Playthings blocks modularity allows children to build stable structures combining all the sets and discover geometric principals in three dimensions.

outlast outdoor play early childhood classroom learning regio inspired community playthings

Outlast wood blocks by Community Playthings are carefully designed to survive even the Canadian outdoors in all seasons.  Protected by the non-toxic acetylation process (the only by product, of which is vinegar) Outlast Blocks won’t warp, rot or split whether left out to bake in the sun, get soaked by rain, frozen or buried in snow. 

That’s why we back Outlast blocks with Louise Kool’s Lifetime Warranty.

Outlast blocks are combined with ramps, water pans and other accessories so that children can build their own solid play structures, outdoors.
