LEARNING STORE: CIRCUIT BLOCKS
Circuit Blocks are hand-made in Pennsylvania from mixed varieties of locally and sustainably sourced hardwoods. Our Circuit Blocks have been iteratively designed as part of the teaching and learning work of the Children's Innovation Project beginning in 2010. The commercial production of Circuit Blocks is a project of Spiral Bound Design - whose commitment to high quality in-house production mirrors the ethos of the learning work of Children’s Innovation Project, implementing slow and careful methods of crafting these materials and improving designs iteratively with each block that is made.
Circuit Blocks are designed with the intention of supporting meaningful, rigorous learning opportunities for children both inside and outside of classrooms. Using Circuit Blocks with this intention affords children opportunities to slow down, dig into struggles of not-knowing and find and follow their internally-motivated curiosities.
