Learning Boards - Tiny City Learning Game

The Tiny City set comprises blocks representing buildings, trees, and cars. They are accompanied by a baseboard with a regular hole pattern grid on its surface, allowing pieces to be arranged at set distances apart, thereby forming streets and roadways. Building blocks are also colour-coded, making them easily identifiable. Additionally, they are keyed underneath, ensuring they fit together in a particular way.

They are also marked with numbers and dots and are size-proportional, with a yellow building representing the most miniature 1-unit block and red representing a 4-unit block. There are so many uses for this set, with counting, observation and fine motor development at the heart of all activities, but there are also many more things to do, which are explained within the excellent pictorial user guide; for example, making a sequence, according to height, stacking different buildings to make the same ‘pre-set-height’—making a city where cars can pass between the buildings and where free play is possible.

With so many pieces and opportunities, this set also makes setting and solving ever more complex tasks possible. It is a fun resource with highly focused challenges that will help children with their understanding of size, proportion, spatial awareness, and logic.

Activity Learning Boards can be used for both floor and table activities.
