Summer vacation has flown by again, which means it's time to start preparing for a new school year. Huh, is that real? Yes, it is! At Fairplace, we're happy to help you with a wonderful selection of educational and creative toys that make learning fun: from colorful crayons, stacking stones to craft materials. Fairplace has it all!
1. Colourme crayons and pencils
Let's color in skin color! It's a word we use super often without really thinking about it. But what is skin color? Because one child in the class is peach and the other brown or pink. With these colored pencils and crayons we show the diversity in the world and this way you learn from an early age that everyone can be themselves. And yes, you can also draw your classmate exactly as she looks.
2. Crayon Rocks
These unique Crayon Rocks crayons are specially designed to help children learn the correct pencil grip so they are the perfect gift to give to your child at the start of the school year. They are easy to hold and encourage an ergonomic writing posture, which is essential for young school-age children developing their writing skills.
3. OMY felt-tip pens and watercolors
Creativity knows no bounds! With OMY felt-tip pens and watercolors, kids can create beautiful works of art that reflect their imagination. These high-quality materials are perfect for home art projects and can also help teach important concepts like color recognition and mixing. Be sure to check out our OMY coloring pages too!
4. Makedo
For the young inventors and builders in the making, we have Makedo , a fantastic set that allows children to make their own constructions using recycled materials. This set not only encourages creativity, but also problem-solving and engineering skills, making learning truly fun!
5. Green Toys for the Preschool Classroom
Our Green Toys collection is perfect for preschoolers who want to learn while they play. From shape sorters to tool sets, these eco-friendly toys are designed to develop essential skills like counting, sorting and spatial awareness. Are you a preschool teacher? We bet you’ll be a hit with these toys in your classroom!
6. Building Kapla in the classroom
Never call Kapla just a building toy because Kapla is so much more than that! This toy encourages children to experiment with balance, structure and creation. Building with Kapla is a great way to develop spatial awareness and provide hours of fun. Yes, even in the classroom!
7. And of course...Stacking stones for kindergarten (or even primary school!)
With our stacking bricks , children can let their imaginations run wild as they build colorful towers, bridges, and structures. This toy challenges children to experiment with balance and stability, and it also promotes hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills. Ideal as relaxation between lessons or as an essential toy in the preschool classroom.
