Rolling/STEAM Toddler Resources Bundle - (Ages 2-3)

There is a reason children spend hours rolling things down slopes, and it is pure physics, even if they would call it a good time. This nine piece rolling and STEAM set gives them everything they need for it. Wooden chutes and stands and short channels can be arranged, stacked and angled in endless ways, inviting children to predict, test and adjust how their ball will travel, which is early scientific thinking and the trajectory schema rolled into one. A generous mix of balls keeps the investigating fresh, from black and white pattern balls and rainbow felt balls to reflective colour mystery balls and a twenty piece multi sensory pack, each with a different weight, texture and speed. A natural heuristic room set adds further loose parts for ramps and runs. Through trial, error and plenty of repetition, this set supports problem solving, cause and effect understanding, hand and eye coordination and early mathematical language in your EYFS setting.
 

 Features
 • Chutes and channels: wooden chutes and short channels can be stacked and angled in endless ways.
 • Varied balls: pattern, felt and reflective balls each roll at a different weight and speed.
 • Multi sensory pack: a twenty piece set keeps investigating fresh.
 • Loose parts: a natural heuristic room set adds pieces for ramps and runs.
 • Open ended setup: resources invite children to build and rebuild their own runs.
 

 Benefits 
 • Builds early science: predicting and testing how balls travel develops scientific thinking.
 • Supports the trajectory schema: rolling play feeds toddlers fascination with movement.
 • Teaches cause and effect: adjusting ramps shows how changes affect results.
 • Develops coordination: releasing and chasing balls refines hand and eye control.
 • Grows early maths language: fast, slow, high and low build mathematical vocabulary.
