To help promote active play, the design team at MODU based in Copenhagen, Denmark, have designed super-sized building blocks. These innovative blocks allow children to explore their imagination thanks to the “age-adapting” design. “MODU makes active play the fun and natural choice for your kids by encouraging them to build their own real creations. Life-size building blocks in tactile foam create endless fun for children of all ages.”
Encouraging Physical Activity and Creativity
MODU building blocks are not just toys; they are tools that encourage physical activity and creativity. The blocks are designed to be large enough for children to use their entire bodies while playing. This means that kids can engage in activities such as balancing, walking, rolling, climbing, rocking, jumping, or even riding. These activities are crucial for developing motor skills and coordination in young children. The tactile foam material is soft yet durable, making it safe for kids to play with while also being robust enough to withstand rough play.
Watch the demonstration video below to learn more about the immersive features created to provide an exciting building experience for children, encouraging them to use their whole body for balancing, walking, rolling, climbing, rocking, jumping, or riding fun.
Versatile and Age-Adapting Design
One of the standout features of MODU building blocks is their age-adapting design. This means that the blocks can be used by children of various ages, from toddlers to older kids. The versatility of the blocks allows for endless configurations and creations, ensuring that children remain engaged and entertained. For example, younger children might start by building simple structures like towers or bridges, while older kids can create more complex designs such as vehicles or obstacle courses. This adaptability ensures that the blocks grow with the child, providing years of play value.
MODU is supplied in kits of blocks, pins, and wheels, providing everything needed to start creating designs. Everything has been designed to interlock using the company’s patented construction system. This system is intuitive and easy to use, allowing children to quickly assemble and disassemble their creations. The inclusion of wheels adds another layer of functionality, enabling kids to build movable structures like cars or carts.
Earlybird pledges are now available from the official Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign page from £34 or $43, with worldwide shipping expected to take place during February 2019. This makes MODU an affordable option for parents looking to invest in a high-quality, educational toy that promotes active play.
