PlayBlox

We recently had the pleasure of working with Poetiare O Rongomai Pre-School in Ōtara to create a play area that's both vibrant and functional.

The goal was to create a distinctive Pacific-inspired environment that gets children excited the moment they step outside. While the ocean-themed surfacing encourages imaginative movement, our PlayBlox provide the tools for essential growth. As a versatile form of ECE playground equipment specifically designed for little learners, these movable blocks promote motor skill development, spatial awareness, and cooperative play.

Safe, durable, and infinitely flexible, PlayBlox are the perfect addition to any modern learning environment. Interested to learn more about the range? Take a look here:

We recently helped Murdoch Park Kindergarten transform their outdoor play area! By combining new PlayBlox pieces with pre-existing blocks and add-ons from another supplier, and utilising our innovative adaptors, we were able to seamlessly integrate the new and existing equipment, unlocking endless new possibilities for the little ones.

Did you know, you don't have to replace all your playground equipment to experience the magic of PlayBlox? Our adaptors allow ECE's to effortlessly mix and match PlayBlox items with existing movable boxes, no matter the manufacturer. This means you can modernise your current setup, add exciting new play elements, and keep the fun fresh every day.
