60Cm Clear Guttering (6Pk)

Take a splashy leap into the wonderful world of guttering play! Our Clear Guttering Set is here to add a dash of curiosity and a wave of excitement to your EYFS setting. These transparent channels offer children the chance to see every twist, turn, and splash as water or toys race from one end to the other, right before their eyes! Want to bring a bit of colour to the fun? Add some coloured water, mix two shades, and get ready for a mini art lesson on colour-blending, right there in the classroom or outdoor educational setting. You’ll see pupils engage with physics, creativity, and pure joy; all thanks to the simple act of pouring, racing, and observing.

Benefits

• Promotes Observational Skills: The clear guttering allows children to watch the journey of water or objects, sparking questions and conversations about speed, flow, and cause-and-effect. This hands-on exploration is essential for building observational and inquiry skills in early learning.
• Encourages Teamwork and Social Interaction: With plenty of room along the 60cm length, multiple children can engage with the guttering at once, racing cars or watching boats together. This promotes social play and teamwork as children collaborate, take turns, and explore new ideas as a group.
• Inspires Early Science Learning: Adding coloured water encourages experimentation with colour mixing, an excellent early science lesson that’s as engaging as it is educational. Observing water flow and angles also introduces fundamental concepts in physics, helping children understand principles like gravity and momentum.
• Enhances Motor Skills: Handling, pouring, and setting up the guttering pieces and adding water or objects helps to refine both fine and gross motor skills. Children will improve their hand-eye coordination and dexterity as they play, move, and manipulate various objects within the guttering.
• Perfect for Sensory Play: The sound of water whooshing, the sight of colours blending, and the feel of racing cars all add up to a comprehensive sensory experience. This set is ideal for encouraging sensory exploration, giving children the chance to engage multiple senses in one playful activity.
