Constructa Rocket - Build Your Own Rocket, 85 pcs

What child doesn't dream of flying all the way up to the stars in their very own rocket and bringing home a shooting star for Mom and Dad?

This 85-piece kit is incredibly sturdy. Once it's part of your family or the preschool classroom, children will get to chase comet tails and feel the thrill of weightlessness for many years to come. 

The pieces are very easy to put together when you follow the instructions. Make sure to involve the children in the building process - it will help them build both problem-solving and 3D skills.

The complete rocket measures 1.2 m x 1.2 m x 1.65 m.

Aside from a rocket, you can also build a wishing well, a ring sculpture, a tunnel, a tent, and many other fun constructions with the sturdy pieces. The set is made of HDPE plastic, which can withstand years of cold and rainy weather.

HDPE plastic is recyclable when disposed of properly at a recycling depot. HDPE plastic is also used for soda bottles and shampoo bottles.

Includes a building guide. 

The activity supports skill development and is wonderful for your child's well-being:

• Unleash your imagination and see where the play takes you.
• Perfect for role play, where children practise taking turns to lead and finding their own place in the game. This strengthens your child's empathy and ability to work with others.

Suitable for children aged 2 yrs. to 6 yrs.

Building and constructing is fun, a bit time consuming, and very educational. We could very easily write a long essay about how this type of play strengthens your child's fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and creativity as well as their interest in entrepreneurship and understanding of geometry.

While playing, your child also gets real hands-on experience with solving problems when it comes to figuring out how to design the construction so it doesn't fall over. Your child's construction play with all sorts of blocks, pieces, and sticks develops their imagination and patience. Also, it's so satisfying to construct a tall, tall tower or build the world's longest marble run, or to maybe make a really cool row of dominoes and film it when it topples.

Motor skills furniture is almost the exact opposite of sitting still and staying calm. Rocking and rolling can actually help children with motor restlessness keep calm. When your child's vestibular sense and proprioception get more of the input they require to function well, your child has an easier time being calm. This means that, when your child gets the sensory stimuli they need, their body is able to relax and function better.

Motor skills furniture bought at Toy Academy is extra durable and will withstand years of active play.
