Soft enough for little hands and full of things to touch, stack and discover, the Soft Silicone Sensory Building Blocks turn a simple set of six cubes into an engaging early-learning activity.
Designed for children aged 18 months+, each pastel block features a raised number from 1 to 6, tactile relief patterns and a different geometric shape on top. Children can hold them, explore the textured surfaces, stack them into small towers and begin becoming familiar with numbers, shapes and colours through hands-on play.
The soft silicone construction makes the blocks especially inviting for toddlers who are still discovering the world through touch.

Six Blocks, Six First Numbers
Each block carries a large raised numeral:
1 · 2 · 3 · 4 · 5 · 6
At first, children may simply enjoy touching the raised shapes.
Later, parents can begin naming the numbers together:
“Can you find number two?”
“Which block comes after three?”
“Can we put number six on top?”
That allows simple number language to grow naturally from ordinary play.
Explore Different Textures
The sides of the blocks feature a variety of 3D embossed patterns.
Some surfaces use repeated lines or dots, while others show raised pictures and decorative motifs.
Running little fingers across the different sides creates a changing tactile experience and encourages children to turn each block around to see what else they can find.
Different Shapes on Top
The blocks also feature different raised shapes on their upper surfaces.
Across the six cubes, children can discover forms such as rounded, angular and geometric shapes.
They can begin noticing that:
one block looks different from another,
some shapes have corners,
others are rounder,
and every cube has its own combination of number, texture and top shape.
Stack & Rebuild
Simple stacking is one of the easiest activities to understand — and one of the most satisfying.
Place one block down.
Add another.
See how high the tower can go.
If it falls, simply start again.
Through that repeated play, children naturally practise positioning, balance and hand-eye coordination.
Soft Pastel Colours
The six blocks come in a calm pastel palette including tones of:
- Coral
- Sage green
- Purple
- Mustard yellow
- Warm beige
- Soft pink
The muted colours give the set a gentler appearance than many brightly coloured toddler toys while still making each block easy to distinguish.
Touch, Turn, Look & Compare
There is more to explore than just the front-facing number.
Children can rotate each cube and compare:
- Colours
- Numbers
- Raised patterns
- Pictures
- Top shapes
- Different sides
That simple process encourages observation and keeps the activity open-ended.
Early Building Play
These blocks offer an easy first introduction to construction play.
Young toddlers do not need a complex building system.
Two cubes stacked together are already a structure.
Three become a tower.
Six can become a row, a wall or a completely improvised arrangement.
The simplicity leaves plenty of room for experimentation.
Learning Through Everyday Play
Parents can gradually introduce small activities as the child becomes ready:
Number play — identify numbers 1–6.
Colour play — name and match the pastel colours.
Shape play — compare the different top forms.
Sensory play — explore the embossed surfaces.
Building play — stack, arrange and knock down the cubes.
There is no need to use all these ideas at once. The blocks can stay simple and grow with the child’s curiosity.

Gravitaly: Otroštvo, skrbno izbrano
Gravitaly je nastal iz preprostega prepričanja: družine se ne bi smele prebijati skozi neskončne izdelke, da bi našle nekaj, kar je res vredno vnesti v otrokov svet.
Ne opredeljuje nas en material, ena država izvora ali en slog igre. Gravitaly opredeljuje kuriranje – premišljen postopek odkrivanja izdelkov, ki združujejo namen, dizajn in pristno vrednost za vsakdanje družinsko življenje.
Naše kolekcije združujejo zaupanja vredne evropske blagovne znamke, neodvisne ustvarjalce in skrbno izbrane globalne proizvajalce. Vsak izdelek je individualno obravnavan glede na to, kaj lahko ponudi: domiselno igro, rastočo neodvisnost, senzorično odkrivanje, praktično podporo ali malo več lepote in udobja v otrokovem dnevu.
Pogledamo dlje od minljivih trendov in natrpanih katalogov. Namesto tega izbiramo igrače, nujne pripomočke za dojenčke, šolske spremljevalce in kose za otroško sobo, ki se zdijo pomembni, uporabni in naravno domači v svetu Gravitaly.
Nekateri izdelki spodbujajo otroke k gradnji, ustvarjanju in izmišljanju lastnih zgodb. Drugi staršem olajšajo vsakdanje rutine ali spremenijo navaden kotiček v prostor za branje, počitek in domišljijo. Tisto, kar jih povezuje, ni istost, temveč namen.
Naš pristop je selektiven, ne restriktiven. Cenimo obrt, premišljene materiale in brezčasen dizajn, hkrati pa priznavamo, da lahko vesele otroške izkušnje zavzamejo številne različne oblike. Podrobnosti o izdelkih – vključno z materiali, priporočeno starostjo, izvorom in razpoložljivimi certifikati – so predstavljene individualno, kar družinam omogoča jasne in samozavestne odločitve.
Vsaka kolekcija Gravitaly se začne z enim vprašanjem:
Bi se počutili samozavestno, če bi to izbrali za otroka, ki ga imamo radi?
To pomeni skrbno izbrano za nas: manj motenj, bolj smiselne izbire in izdelki, izbrani tako, da postanejo del pravega otroštva – njegovih iger, rutin, sob, pustolovščin in spominov.
