Build increadible 3D structures while learning about the importance of honeybees! The Bajo The Hive Wooden Blocks is a set of 30 hexagonal wooden blocks representing parts of a honeybee colony. Each block has a dowel and holes to slot them together to form 3D honeycomb structures for learning about honey bees.

This is a great educational toy for learning about the structure of a beehive and the importance of bees as pollinators. Each member of the hive has a very specific role to play and this set of blocks will introduce children to the key players in this fascinating family.
