The Fifth of 14 Exhibits in 14 Weeks

Imagination Playground Blocks are a set of large, foam loose parts that allow children to play at an architectural scale.The set consists of 15 different shapes to encourage open-ended free play and a wide variety of play patterns. Imagination Playground Blocks are available in one color – a vibrant shade of blue – in order to facilitate more imaginative play, without distraction or competition that might arise from multi-colored parts.

The Oklahoma WONDERtorium purchased Imagination Playground in mid-2010 and it has "appeared" at WONDER Wheel-a-Thon 2010, Eskimo Joe's Juke Joint Jog Fun Zone in October 2010 and will be an integral component of Grandparent University at Oklahoma State in Summer 2011.
