Engineering Toys for 5 and 6 year olds

Following on from my blog on Engineering Toys for 3 and 4 year olds, I’ve decided to do one for slightly older children, so here are some engineering toys or games that would suit 5 and 6 year olds.

1. Clever Up! 4.0

Clever Up! 2.0 is a 154 piece wooden construction set. It comes with lots of different shaped wooden pieces and encourages open ended play as your child constructions different buildings each time.

2. 3D Creative Stones

3D Creative Stones is an arranging game with 28 colourful wooden blocks. Copy the designs in the book or make your own patterns and shapes.

3.  Domino Race Track

 

Strategically lay out the wooden dominoes in this Domino Race Track so that when you knock one over, they all fall.

4. Playpress Savannah

This tough board play set involves pushing out the pieces and slotting them together to make Savannah animals.

5. Mini Octons

This set of colourful plastic octons can slot together in lots of different angles, allowing your child to create some amazing 3D shapes.

6. Eduludo Shapes

 

Eduludo Shapes is a junior version of Tangrams.

I hope this blog has inspired you to think of some engineering toys that might suit your children.
