The Woopie Green cork board is a game for little builders: with a wooden hammer and pins, your child fixes colourful wooden shapes to cork and makes pictures from patterns or their own ideas.

This cork board hammer game has 82 pieces, plenty of shapes and colours and three difficulty levels, so it never gets old. Inside are 30 colourful blocks in different shapes, 40 pins, 10 double-sided cards with 20 patterns, a cork board and a wooden hammer. Your child can follow the patterns or come up with something completely new. Add memory challenges by recreating a pattern without looking at the card. The pieces are wooden, rounded and safe. The board measures 18 × 18 × 4 cm, and the game is designed for children aged 4 and up.

What your child develops

• Manual skills. Tapping in small pieces takes precision and builds dexterity.
• Imagination and creativity. Own designs spark invention and creative thinking.
• Logical thinking. Copying patterns trains analysis of shape, colour and space.
• Concentration. Precise tapping teaches patience.
• Memory. Recreating a pattern from memory strengthens short-term memory.

How to play

Pick a simple pattern, find the shapes you need and tap in the first one together. At first, help hold the pin until your child feels confident with the hammer.

Once the patterns are mastered, invite your child to create their own picture – a house, a car or an animal – and tell you about it.

Why cork

Pins go into cork easily and hold firmly, so children do not need much force. The wooden shapes are sturdy and last a long time.

The cork board hammer game is a good gift for children aged 4 and up who love working with tools – for a birthday or Christmas.
