A BIG set for BIG builders!
These are NOT just little planks of wood! These are KAPLA, and there are two critical factors that make them unique in the market of toy planks:
- Their length, width and thickness are exact multiples of eachother which introduces come counting, painterns and basic maths concepts into play
- Their machining is precise which means KAPLA constructions are unusually stable and satisfying for little fingers that enjoy getting things "just right!"
280 KAPLA planks are presented in a lovely wooden case designed a lid and book. Four volumes of the book are available, but a choice is not possible we're afraid. The books are available for sale individually if there's a specific book you're after. This set is big enough for group activities within a family, or even a classroom.
Originating in France in 1987, KAPLA has become a renowned, European brand name in wooden construction toys. Invented by Dutchman Tom van der Bruggen, the name "KAPLA" comes from a Dutch term meaning "plank" or "stack." These precision-cut pine planks have a unique ratio, allowing them to create impressive structures without the need for adhesives or connectors. Sourced from 100% renewable French forests, KAPLA planks are made from natural Landes pine. The coloured planks are dyed using food-safe colouring.
