Swivel Pulley Kit

Bring the magic of mechanics into your EYFS setting with our Swivel Pulley Kit—a must-have tool for hands-on learning and endless play possibilities. This simple yet ingenious kit turns everyday materials into a world of construction fun. Whether children are lifting supplies in a bustling , hauling supplies to and from the Architect’s House or sandpit setup, and exploring scientific principles in an , this pulley system provides a dynamic way to combine play and practical learning. Supervision is recommended to keep the fun safe and ensure those curious hands stay busy with constructive play.

This kit isn’t just about moving objects; it’s about moving minds. By engaging with the pulley, children strengthen fine and gross motor skills, develop teamwork, and discover the joys of STEM exploration. Watch as they experiment with force, tension, and mechanical advantage while hauling buckets filled with sand, stones, or imaginative treasures. The bucket’s sturdy design ensures it can handle the rigours of playtime while adding an authentic construction vibe.

Designed for curious minds and eager hands, the Swivel Pulley Kit includes a 20-metre rope, a durable pulley, and a hardworking bucket. Our Swivel Pulley Kit is a must-tool for budding builders and architects, why not keep and other construction tools in our Builder’s Shed (available separately) — because even the smallest engineers need a tidy worksite!
