The Magnetic Water Channels are totally flexible with tactile hooks for little hands to move and re-position. The Channels are great for encouraging children to create their own Rivers and Streams supporting understanding of the flow of water. They explore their knowledge and understanding of the natural world and learn scientific words such as volume, weights and measure.

The tactile nature of the product encourages children to take turns and share. The children develop language skills as they interact with the Product.
