Children will love exploring cause and effect on a smaller scale!This set includes three uniquely designed wooden channels that transform everyday play into a rich, engaging experience for young learners, for small tuff spots, settings, or people! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne channel features diagonal raised wooden blocks that encourage objects, sand or water to move in a zigzag pattern. This innovative design not only captivates children's attention but also promotes problem-solving and fine motor skills as they experiment with different materials moving down the channel. The raised sides ensure that the contents stay on course, minimising spills and maintaining a focused play area.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnother channel has horizontally positioned raised blocks, creating natural dams or blockages. This design allows children to explore concepts of flow and obstruction, fostering critical thinking and cause-and-effect reasoning. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFinally, the last channel, with its raised sides, provides a straightforward path for materials to travel, perfect for observing basic principles of motion and gravity. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach channel is equipped with sturdy wooden stoppers underneath, designed to secure the channels on the edges of Tuff Spot Trays or similar robust surfaces. These stoppers not only prevent the channels from sliding off during use but also allow for easy setup of slopes or bridges. By placing the channels between two Tuff Spot trays of equal height, children can create exciting bridges, while different height setups introduce slopes for added complexity and fun.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Tuff Tray Channels set is ideal for water play, sand play or loose parts play, offering endless opportunities for creative exploration and learning. Whether children are watching water cascade down the long channel or building dams in the shorter channels, they are immersed in hands-on activities that promote cognitive development, coordination and teamwork.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese channels are designed to withstand the energetic play of young children, making them a valuable addition to any setting. By integrating these channels into sensory and STEM activities, educators can create a stimulating environment that encourages curiosity, discovery and a love for learning. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAge Suitability\t3 Years+\u003cbr\u003eContents\t1x Long Skinny Channel | 2x Short Skinny Channels | Other resources pictured NOT included\u003cbr\u003eDimensions\tLong Skinny Channel: H7.5cm x L110cm x D15cm | Short Skinny Channel: H7.5cm x L60cm x D15cm","brand":"Cosy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42550909141105,"sku":"023-55747","price":269.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0625\/4195\/5185\/files\/023-55747.png?v=1776804481","url":"https:\/\/scholarschoice.ca\/products\/skinny-tuff-tray-channels","provider":"Scholar's Choice","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
