Description

Learning material on wheels

Educational and Dacta was aimed at schools and nurseries, not the toy trade. The Basic Brick Runner fits that: it is a base set with which groups of children build vehicles and test them. By rolling, pushing and improving, they learn in play what wheels, axles and stability mean. There are no minifigures, so the focus stays entirely on the vehicle and what you can do with it, such as tracks, ramps or little races.

Yellow, red, green, blue

The four main colours are the classic primaries found in learning material. They help children sort, count and describe: how many red bricks do you need, what colour is your vehicle? The 31 different parts are spread over 116 pieces, so there is a lot of repetition. That makes building to a pattern as easy as free experiments, and it stops children having to wait for one special part at every step. In groups that is a real advantage.

Try, compare, improve

A runner invites races: which vehicle rolls furthest, which one tips over first? Questions like these lead to first experiments in which children test assumptions and adjust the model. Teachers can use the set as a group task, and parents as a calm weekend activity. Thanks to the large elements everything stays easy to grip, and even smaller children can join in without frustration because nothing is too fiddly, which makes the set workable for mixed age groups.

Building from your stock

The 1999 set is mostly found second-hand today. The parts list on this page shows which elements should be included, so you can check an offer closely. The bricks fit other parts of this large size, which lets the set blend into existing collections. With “What can I build?” you can find out which other models your whole stock could make, whether a vehicle or something quite different, and which parts you would still need.
