Go ahead! Are you gaping? You are in good company.
We've concluded, the very best building sets are often those that are the simplest in design. So easy a toddler can do it...so advanced your structures can really resemble the Eiffel Tower.
Introducing Kapla blocks. One simple shape. Precision laser-cut from hardwood. So exact, unlike ordinary basic building blocks, pieces adjoin perfectly for incredible stability. -Stability evidenced in the way you can stack Kapla blocks to the ceiling of a cathedral -literally! Stability in the way Kapla wood blocks can be arranged in ways to bear an incredible amount of weight.
Kapla blocks' proportions are based on the elementary progression of odd numbers: 1:3:5. This ratio for optimal strength is often used in forming bricks, cutting beams, planks, and stone...It is what allows Kapla builders to enter a whole new realm of block construction capabilities!
When it comes to purchasing a child's construction and building set, (ahem - or an adult's building set), it's wise to invest in timeless play value. Timeless, because you enjoy it as much at 5 years old as you will at 75... Timeless, because your Kapla Blocks will remain in fantastic condition with the heirloom wooden box of this great set! (Timeless because they look good in a cathedral.)
What's more fun than building blocks? ...intricate designs flowing from your mind through your hands in your Kapla gallery. Here is your chance to become an architect, physicist, mathematician and artist. Pull out the Kapla blocks! Naturally, logic & imagination come together for amazing results.

We have a small set of Kapla, and my two boys use them at least weekly to build all sorts of amazing things. This large set allows older kids more chance to create. My sons are also big into Legos. Kapla blocks also fills that mechanical, exact building desire. These are blocks for grownups too. They work great. I did not think blocks could be so special. Visit the Kapla site for amazing ideas.
Kapla Blocks in my Classroom

I use Kapla Blocks in my classroom. I teach in a gifted program and I use the blocks in my 5th grade to teach "structures" and to teach "problem solving." This is my second set of the 1000 piece Kapla Blocks. My program keeps growing so I needed another set. I need another set of 1000 but they're expensive. Watching my gifted 5th graders build with the Kapla Blocks is interesting. It takes them 15-30 minutes to get over their fear of blocks and start taking a risk to see what structures the blocks will tolerate. After that, they get creative with solving the problem. And the more they play with them, the better and more creative the structures get. After using Kapla Blocks and Legos in my program at different times, I prefer the Kapla Blocks. Kapla Blocks offer more imaginative and creative play.
Kapla is Awesome!
