Elou Basic Vowels

Discover letter forms, learn to spell and build with these Elou Basic Vowels, a 20-piece block set made from sustainable natural cork. These cork blocks come in five different shapes and can be put together to spell out letters, the building blocks of language. Sound out the letters with your child as they play to bring on their understanding of language and vocabulary. They can also be used for building games to make towers, houses and natural habitats for wooden animals to live in, and used as counting aids too. 

Tots will delight in discovering how the blocks fit together and the tactile nature of these smooth, soft cork blocks appeals to the senses too. These cork building blocks will also be a hit with green parents with a passion for design and sustainability. This educational toy is ideal for learning at home and in the classroom too.

This toy measures 15cm x 15cm x 15cm and is suitable from age 3. Warning: this toy is not recommended for children under 3.

Sensory play: fine motor, co-ordination, grip, touch

Natural eco toys from Elou are ethically made in Portugal from sustainable, native raw cork. Thoughtfully design to inspire children to play and learn, Elou’s high quality toys are expertly crafted and bring children closer to nature. From blocks to vehicles, animals, puzzles and crayons, spark your child’s imagination with an Elou toy.

Soft, smooth and light, these natural cork toys are completely compostable and about as sustainable as you can get. Rather than cutting down a whole tree to make wooden toys, the outer layer only is stripped off and in seven years, the cork will have grown back, ready to make new products. Each Elou toy goes back to the deep-rooted tradition of cork growing in Portugal which supports natural habitats that give a home to wildlife.
