Tumi-Ishi Balancing Rock Blocks - 8-Pack

Eight wooden rocks, enough for a tower tall enough to argue over.

Tumi-ishi — the mountain of rocks — came to us from Japan, and the whole game is in the title: stack the rocks into a tower and keep them there. Every rock is cut to its own shape and size, so the tower you build is never the one you built yesterday. It is slow, quiet play that holds a three-year-old on the rug after breakfast and catches out the adult who sat down to help.

Materials

Pine wood, water-based paint.

Size

About 1.5 × 1.2 × 0.7 inches a rock, varying from piece to piece. Sold in a small and a large set.

Set weight 1.7 oz.

Made in

Made in Europe.

Please note

For ages 3 and up. Small pieces, so keep younger children in view and play with an adult nearby.

Colours are picked at random, so the set that arrives will not match the photograph exactly.

The colour and grain of the wood vary from piece to piece, so no two sets look quite the same.
