There is something genuinely exciting about handing a child 86 pieces and watching them decide what the world looks like. The TTS Alice Sharp's Eco Build a World is an open-ended eco construction set built for exactly that kind of discovery - available across Canada and the US through The Sensory Supply.
Developed in partnership with Alice Sharp, an award-winning and internationally respected early years specialist, this 86-piece loose parts collection is built around the principle that children learn most deeply when they are the architects of their own play. The pieces twist together, stack, and connect in countless configurations - creating houses, trees, animals, landscapes, pathways, sculptures, and small worlds limited only by imagination. An included idea booklet offers starting points and provocations, though children rarely need prompting for long.
The STEAM framework underpinning this set - Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics - is not incidental. As children design and construct, they are estimating, comparing, problem-solving, and engineering without realising it. It is the kind of integrated learning that early years educators and occupational therapists recognise immediately as developmentally rich.
Small world construction is far richer than it first appears. As children build and rebuild their miniature worlds, they are working across multiple developmental domains simultaneously - and this set is designed to support all of them.
This set is genuinely for everyone. It belongs on the shelf of a four-year-old who builds obsessively, in the resourcing kit of an early years teacher building a loose parts provocation, and in the OT's toolkit as a fine motor and cognitive activity with exceptional depth and replayability. Neurodiverse children who engage through construction, hands-on manipulation, and open-ended challenge find this kind of resource especially rewarding. Neurotypical children find it just as absorbing.
