Playing with Planets

It’s time to blast into outer space and explore our  Solar System with these beautifully illustrated blocks.  This set features 8 blocks with each planet not only illustrated in detail but also labelled with name and on the reverse side the size dimensions. 

Freckled Frog’s Stacking Planet are in size order to what is true of the size of the real planets .Mercury being the smallest, followed by Mars and so on.

Children will enjoy stacking the blocks and as their skills develop they will be able to name and express features of each planet. “ The Earth is blue and green”,  “Jupiter is the biggest”.  

 It really is learning through play at its best.  As their curiosity grows they will love learning more about the size of the planets and their position in relation to the Earth. 

This set covers so many skill development areas and is brilliant as a tool for early science, literacy and math concepts.  We love how the way you use and present these blocks  can change with the child’s skill level, from simple stacking to a true discussion starter about our place in the universe. ‘
