Description
Antics Blocks are unique, quirky building blocks that inspire imagination and creativity. Their irregular shapes and bright colors challenge kids to think outside the box and develop their motor skills. They are great for free-form building and storytelling.
Educational Antics Ant Blocks are printed with ants on all sides so kids can mix and match the paths of these busy creatures. No matter where the ants go, their marching lines always connect with this clever print. Designed by the Uncle Goose brand, these blocks offers hands-on STEM learning with an emphasis on engineering, construction, patterns, natural science, and cause-and-effect. This kit also supports development of gross and fine motor skills.
