Guidecraft IO Blocks Center: STEM Educational Toy for Toddlers

As a design-based company with strong roots in education, we are in a unique position to bring theory, safety, and quality all together into the design and manufacturing of our toys and furniture. We prioritize quality and create toys that are built to last (and not end up in a landfill!). Durable, easy-to-clean materials make Guidecraft learning toys the right choice for the home and classroom.

Our collection of educational toys has been designed to encourage early development, spark curiosity, and inspire hands-on learning through play. Industry experts, educators, and parents design our toy sets based on every child's innate patterns of play. Whether it's fostering their imagination with our lofts and dress-up centers, connecting kids more closely to nature with our toys, or providing a comfortable reading nook, we take pride in contributing to children's development.

The IO Blocks Center is a comprehensive early childhood education system that combines a birch plywood play table, 4 storage bins, and 458 building pieces, including 400 IO Blocks, 14 gears, 16 axles, 4 gear cranks, 12 slide pieces, and 12 IO people. Gears, slides, and IO people combine with friction-fit IO Blocks pieces to create limitless constructions, offering educational benefits such as STEM, problem-solving, architecture, physics, simple machines, large-scale symmetry and asymmetry, teamwork, movement, dramatic play, and model-scale building.
