Our lifecycle blocks are thoughtfully designed to represent animals and insects that the children may be familiar with. These blocks wonderfully illustrate the lifecycle of a moth, butterfly, chicken and frog. Children can see how the animal develops through a series of changes to their adult presence, as reflected by the size of the block with the fully grown animal being represented by the largest block and the eggs the smallest. These blocks are brilliant as a tool for early literacy and science but also great for stacking and practising hand-eye coordination.
- 5 pieces in each set.
- Largest block measures 5.8cm x 5.8cm and smallest 3cm x 3cm.
- Made with FSC certified Beech wood.
- Suitable for children 1 year and over.

This is for an older child (4-5yrs) for learning about the life cycles. Literacy learning connects with the language used to label each stage of the life cycle. It is a great mathematical tool for my younger children for building towers from biggest to smallest and a great problem-solving experience if the tower constantly falls.
