Papoose Wooden Hashtag Set with tray (8 pieces set)

The set has eight beechwood blocks shaped like hash tags, each with different openings, plus a wooden storage tray to keep them tidy. Every block measures 15 by 15 by 2.5cm. The open frames are made to be filled with other pieces, so each block works as both a frame and a building unit.

As wooden stacking toys the hash tags can be piled, lined up and layered to build walls, towers and patterns. Their flat, even shape stacks steadily, and because each block has openings, children can combine stacking with filling and threading for more varied construction than plain blocks allow.

The openings can be filled with wooden, gem and Lucite play pieces, so children build, stack, fill and sort in one set. They can frame small objects, create patterns inside the openings, or use the blocks as part of larger imaginative builds. When play ends, everything stores in the tray.

Yes. The openings are made to hold loose parts such as gems and Lucite shapes. Pieces from sets like the Lucite Small Triangles can drop into the frames to add colour and light, so the hash tags pair well with other Papoose block and Lucite sets.

Stacking and balancing the blocks builds fine motor control and hand-eye coordination, while filling and sorting the openings encourages planning and early pattern making. Open-ended construction also supports problem solving and creativity, as there is no single correct way to combine the eight blocks.

The blocks are made from beechwood, a smooth, sturdy hardwood, and come with a matching wooden tray. The natural timber gives each block a warm feel and solid weight for stacking. Papoose recommends the set for children aged 3 and over.

Wipe the beechwood blocks with a dry or barely damp cloth and avoid soaking them, as prolonged water can affect natural wood. Return the pieces to the included wooden tray after play to keep the set complete and make it easy to store on a shelf.
