Interact with this giant scales like structure investigating, experimenting, manoeuvring, posting and balancing a range of materials including glow resources to make a dramatic, engaging impact.

• Children love playing with this transparent unit that looks amazing in the light. It has channels to roll things along, places to hang and post things. It supports a STEAM based enquiry approach to learning as the children problem solve and employ critical thinking skills. Suitable for 10 months and up.

• This unit arrives flat packed and is easy to assemble into this appealing structure. It is designed to be played with in a variety of ways. It can be used as a balance to learn about weights. Simply hang buckets on the end, (not included) and see how you can manoeuvre it back and forth. The arms of the scales also enable objects to be placed or hung to add extra investigation skills. How many blocks will it hold, how many spheres? It is therefore a great collaborative way of learning about numbers and counting. The central piece has posting areas. Place cylinders and see how the ball can roll down the unit. This will help support with schematic interests as well as motor skills coordination.

• This unit really works well in sensory, glowing environments, especially with objects such as the light up bricks and spheres. It also can be used with all kinds of other materials; it may be that the children use natural objects that they have found.

• The unit can be part of a block and construction area. The children can compare, contrast, test, etc.

• Made from clear acrylic. Wipe clean. Suitable from 10 months plus. Dimensions: W 108 cm and H 70 cm. Self-assembly, arrives flat packed.
