Wood Slices, Nails and Mini Hammers Set

Inspire young makers and creators with the Wood Slices, Nails and Mini Hammers Set from Cosy Direct. This engaging construction and tinkering resource provides children with everything they need to practise early woodwork and develop essential fine motor and coordination skills.

The set includes 12 moveable natural wood slices, 1000 nails, and 10 mini hammers – perfect for group use in classrooms, KS1 and Primary settings. Children can explore the feel of real tools, safely learning how to hammer nails into wood slices while building confidence and independence.

Woodwork play not only strengthens hand–eye coordination and muscle control but also nurtures problem-solving, concentration, and resilience. By experimenting with shape, placement, and pattern, children gain early STEM skills and spatial awareness in a hands-on, purposeful way.

Ideal for classroom use, this resource encourages collaboration, turn-taking, and communication as children plan and create together. The natural wooden elements link beautifully to forest school and natural learning approaches, helping bring tactile, practical experiences into everyday learning areas.

A versatile and durable set, it’s perfect for supporting imaginative construction play and developing the skills children need for future learning.
