What are Citiblocs?

Citiblocs are high quality wooden construction blocks which inspire both traditional building and modern design. The secret behind Citblocs is that every piece is exactly the same shape and size. Each block is precisely cut from Grade A Radiata Pine from certified renewable forests in New Zealand. Citiblocs Building requires no glue, no snaps, no connectors and no magnets: just gravity, balance and imagination. Building with Citiblocs is simple: stack one block on top of another. Their specific size and shape and weight allows building that is simply not possible with other building toys. Build a small cabin by the lake or a tower that reaches the stars!

The Citiblocs Block Party!

Go beyond the "Sit & Watch" Assembly! There is a better way!

This is not your ordinary Assembly---Pow!Science! Master Builders will bring thousands of precision cut New Zealand Pine building blocks & spend 4 to 5 hours at your school as each grade level cycles into the room for 25 minutes of hands ON, age appropriate engineering!

As you can see from the pictures, teachers sometimes get "a little bit into it" too!!

Younger students will learn and practice principles of balance & building, older students will learn about ratios and the importance of Engineering systems, all the while building towers, bridges and buildings that will turn venue into a wooden wonderland of towers, bridges and buildings.

The fee for The Citiblocs Block Party is $500.00 for programs in RI and nearby MA. Click HERE for contact information or call us at (401)788-1024.

The Citiblocs Program is also available as a Single Classroom Visit: Click here for more information.
