From Frustration to Mastery
We all know the scene: a child dumps out the construction bucket, connects two pieces, and then stops, unsure where to take it next. These work cards bridge the gap between having the tools and having the technique. By offering a clear, achievable goal—like a bulldozer, a windmill, or a helicopter—they give children a roadmap to success. You'll hear the shift in the room, from the clatter of aimless searching to the quiet hum of concentration as they hunt for that specific red connector shown on the card.
Learning to Read Without Words
Before children learn to read text, they learn to read the world. Deciphering these diagrams teaches them to follow a logical sequence and pay attention to detail. One side of the card displays the finished model, while the reverse breaks it down into components, teaching children to analyse how the wheels attach and which direction the connectors face. The pack features a colour-coded difficulty system: Yellow borders for beginners (3+), Blue for intermediate builders, and Red for advanced engineering challenges (6+).
Classroom Tough
Mobilo is a staple in Australian kindys for a reason, and these cards are built to the same standard. Printed on high-quality, durable cardstock with a smooth finish, they resist tearing and can be easily wiped down if a snack break gets messy. Each card is A5 size (21 x 15 cm), perfectly sized for little hands to hold or prop up on the table while they build.
