The JollyHeap Extra Set - 32 Blocks is a magnetic foam block expansion set that adds two brand new shapes to any existing JollyHeap collection. Families, schools, daycares, and therapy rooms across North America use it to push building play further once the basic shapes have been mastered.
This is an add-on set, not a starter kit. It's built for collections that already include a JollyHeap Basic, Medium, or Joy set and are ready for more range. Once children have the fundamentals down, two additional shapes open up a different kind of construction - more sculptural, more detailed, and closer to the specific thing they had in mind. A rocket starts to read as a rocket. A castle gets its own architectural personality.
New Shapes for Magnetic Foam Block Collections
-
16 Truncated Cubes - Cubes with the top corners sliced off add angled faces to the building vocabulary, letting children shape rooftops, prows, and rounded edges that a plain cube can't manage on its own
-
16 Pyramids - Sharp, four-sided peaks give builders a precise finishing shape, so towers and sculptural details start to look like the specific thing a child pictured rather than a rough approximation
-
32 Pieces, Two New Shapes - A full expansion adds real building range in one set, so a collection that has settled into familiar patterns opens back up to more complex, more detailed construction
Durable, Washable Construction for Repeated Play
-
Hand Sewn, Abrasion Resistant Fabric - Each piece is covered by hand in fabric built to resist scratches and wear, so even the most determined young builder can't tear a piece apart
-
HR High Flexibility Foam Core - A soft, high flexibility foam core gives every piece a gentle give, making stacking and rebuilding forgiving for hands still developing coordination
-
Embedded Neodymium Magnets - Magnets built into each piece let blocks click together securely from multiple angles, keeping builds stable instead of toppling mid-construction
-
Machine Washable at 30 Degrees - The full set washes on a 30 degree machine programme, so daily mess never gets in the way of the next building session
-
EN 71-1, EN 71-2, EN 71-3 and REACH Certified - Independently tested against European mechanical, flammability, and chemical migration safety standards, for confidence in repeated handling at home or in a classroom
Fine Motor and Sensory Integration Through Sculptural Building
Occupational and physiotherapy professionals value building play that grows more demanding as a child's skills do, and these two new shapes are built for exactly that stage. Angled and pointed pieces ask hands to plan grip, rotation, and placement in ways flat cubes don't, supporting fine motor planning and tactile sensory integration for children of all abilities. The soft, pleasant to touch surface keeps that challenge approachable, which is part of why soft magnetic building systems show up so often in therapy and sensory rooms across North America.
Ideal For
- Families growing an existing JollyHeap Basic, Medium, or Joy set at home
- Occupational and physiotherapy clinics adding sculptural detail to therapy room sessions
- Daycares and schools with a JollyHeap collection looking to extend group building projects
- Any child, neurodiverse or neurotypical, who has moved past basic shapes and wants more range
