Description

A pack made for the classroom

StoryStarter is a learning line in which children build scenes with bricks and then develop stories from them. This replacement pack supplies fresh stock when pieces have gone missing from a classroom set. It is therefore not a classic set with instructions, but a collection of bricks suited to settings such as meadows, woods, houses or open ground. No minifigures are included, because children bring their characters from the main pack. The pack replaces the scenery rather than the cast, so it can be added to an existing classroom box without creating many duplicates.

Earthy colours for landscapes

Tan, green, reddish brown and light bluish grey set the palette. Those are exactly the tones you need for landscapes, huts and paths. With only 14 different parts across 515 pieces, many bricks appear in large numbers, which makes the pack practical for group work. At home it is useful too, if you lack baseplates and simple bricks in natural colours for dioramas or model railway scenery.

Few shapes, lots of room

Because the variety of shapes is small, the appeal lies in combining them. From similar basic bricks you can build houses, fences, rocks or trees, in whatever form the story needs. The parts list on this page shows which shapes are included and in what quantity, so you can judge whether the pack suits your plan before you start hunting for another source. That saves a good deal of guesswork and the occasional disappointment. It is also a quick way to compare the pack with other bulk sources when you are putting together material for a whole group of children.

Using it and building on

Whether you are a teacher, a nursery worker or a collector, the pack works as a reserve for craft boxes and as a basis for landscape building. The "What can I build?" tool shows which models come out of these 515 pieces combined with your collection. With a plain pack like this, that check is worthwhile because you may find uses you had not thought of while putting a scene together.
