Yesterday I posted about using kitchen utensils in the blocks center. Today on the collaborative blog, PreK and K Sharing, I posted ideas of other unusual things we've used in the blocks center.
Here are some pictures of other items we've enjoyed in our construction play.
PVC Pipes and Connectors
Plastic Lids
Paper Strips and Rocks
Cardboard Pieces
Cardboard Tubes and Cardboard Pieces
Index Cards
What are some things you have added to supplement your kids' construction play? Add ideas here or on the collaborative blog.
The tops of discarded markers.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I've used those tops for other things but not in the blocks center. It's now on my list.
DeleteStyrofoam (though it's messy), the cardboard corners from tv or furniture boxes, cones, sour cream containers, & cut up pool noodles. I have some cut up PVC pipes, but I love your PVC pic showing the big pieces and connectors! Great ideas!
