Loose parts, puzzles, games, and intriguing materials for tabletop play create a rich canvas for the exploration of numeracy and mathematical concepts. From the abstract to the absolute hands-on tools engage children in active computational thinking.

Help students and kids discover the exciting world of engineering and construction with our Blocks, Ramps, and Construction collection of products. These tools support hands-on learning, perfect for young minds eager to explore and build. Whether you bring these tools into the classroom or use them at home, you'll find that they spark imagination while teaching essential engineering and construction skills that will prove invaluable later on.


Why Are Blocks, Ramps & Construction Important?


Understanding how things work is a natural inclination for children, and what better way to satisfy that curiosity than with blocks, ramps, and construction sets? These engineering products for kids are not just toys; they are powerful tools that help them learn about engineering in a playful yet meaningful way. By manipulating blocks, building structures, and experimenting with ramps, children develop an understanding of basic physics principles such as gravity, force, and motion. 


These products are more than just entertainment too—they are the building blocks of a STEM education, laying a foundation for future learning in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.


Bringing Engineering Products to the Classroom


Incorporating STEM products like blocks and ramps into the classroom transforms learning into an interactive and immersive experience. When children actively construct their ideas, they apply concepts in real-time. This hands-on approach fosters a deeper understanding of the material, making learning effective and enjoyable. Teachers who integrate these tools into their curriculum can see improved problem-solving skills and a greater interest in STEM subjects like engineering among their students.


Blocks, Ramps & Construction Products You’ll Love


Integrating the right tools from our collection can make a big difference in how kids engage with learning. The Toddler Ramp Set is a fantastic way to introduce little ones to the basics of physics. It’s all about fun and discovery as they watch objects roll down different slopes, getting a feel for speed, gravity, and motion. It’s a playful way to explore these concepts without formal instruction.


For those looking to delve deeper, the Discovery Ramps Deluxe Set with Caddy offers a more advanced exploration. This set comes with various ramps and accessories, perfect for kids ready to take on more complex challenges. They can mix and match different pieces to create their unique courses, experimenting with angles and materials to see how things move. Plus, the handy caddy keeps everything organized, making it easy to set up and put away, a bonus for any busy classroom.


The Toddler Table Towers are a great choice if you want to focus on building skills and creativity. These sturdy, stackable towers are perfect for helping kids understand balance and stability. Children can stack them high or create wide, stable bases, learning through trial and error how different shapes and sizes work together. It’s a hands-on way to think like an engineer while having fun.


And then there are the Magnifying Blocks. These aren’t just for building—they’re great for curious kids who love to explore. With their transparent sides, children can examine leaves, insects, or other small objects up close, sparking a natural curiosity about the world around them. It’s all about making learning engaging and interactive, turning every moment into an opportunity for discovery.

Trusted by Educators

Don’t just take our word for it…

Our products and support are celebrated by educators and children alike.

Jaci I.

Director of Early Childhood Education @ Congregation Beth Elohim

We have set up a sensory room with many of Kodo’s materials–light table, magnet wall, wind tunnel–and it’s a favorite space for all of our classes to visit. Parents and professional visitors are quite impressed with the uniqueness and open-ended aspect of the materials.


I met with the founder many years ago at a NAEYC conference when he was just starting and had just a few products and was immediately impressed with his understanding of how young children learn. It has been a pleasure to watch the company grow while maintaining the integrity of your knowledge of how young children learn best through active participation and exploration of their environment.

Teacher @ Tennie Russell Primary School

Our little learners are finding new ways to explore through light, movement, engineering and more. Adding the wind tunnel to our lab has been a game changer in terms of excitement level and inquiry. Students eagerly explore how things blow when the tunnel is adjusted to varying angles, and they discover the differences in materials and how well they move through and out of the tunnel. We expanded our engineering/building area by increasing choices with the Swiss Ramp Stands and the Discovery Ramps set. In doing that, we sparked a higher interest in force and motion, including problem-solving on how to stop said motion. These are just some of the items we purchased from Kodo Kids with our grant, and we look forward to seeing our young minds at work as we continue to expand our STEAM lab.

The Outdoor Ramps have been a fantastic addition to support outdoor learning at Oak Ridge Elementary. Students in preschool through 1st grade have been able to use the ramps in multiple environments, including indoors, on our playground, in our forest outdoor classroom, and in our prairie outdoor classroom. In addition, all students, regardless of their abilities, have been able to participate in ramp play. Students who are wheelchair-bound are able to participate in ramp play with their classmates due to having longer length sections that reach the child’s chair height.
