The Woopie police station – lay the walls yourself and send the patrol cars out on duty!

This 186-piece police station building kit is a DIY learning toy where children become a real architect and bricklayer. Using small real bricks and safe, water-soluble cement mortar, your child builds a police station. It can be built, knocked down and rebuilt. It's easy to use: mix 2 tablespoons of powder with 1 of water, spread the mortar with a trowel and lay bricks layer by layer. The bricks are reusable and the mortar washes off. The set includes 186 building pieces including bricks and tiles, cement mortar powder, mason's tools (trowel, bowl and measuring spoon), police cars, finishing pieces such as doors and windows, and building instructions. From 3 years.

What your child develops

• Hand skills. Laying walls.
• Spatial thinking. Planning a build.
• Constructive thinking. Building order.
• Patience. Precise work.

How to play

When the station is finished, act out a police call-out with the included cars.

Take down the walls, rinse the bricks and rebuild with a different entrance.
