Set the scene

  • Building blocks in a few shapes
  • A low, clear play surface

Works beautifully with: Any building set / Laguna.

An invitation to play

  1. Choose a wide block for the base and place a second block on top.
  2. Take turns adding one piece. Pause to notice when the tower starts to lean.
  3. When it falls, look at the pieces together. Try a wider base or a different arrangement.

A LITTLE QUESTION TO OPEN THINGS UP

“What could we change to help it stay standing?”

Let it grow

Try making a tower with a rule: use only five pieces, or alternate wide and narrow shapes.

Follow the age guidance on your product packaging. Use only age-appropriate pieces and supervise play. Keep small parts away from children under 3.
