Specifications
Inspire storytelling, imaginative play, and meaningful conversations with the Magnetic Community Storytelling Board Set—a versatile resource designed to engage young learners in creative expression while exploring community roles and environments. This 76-piece set includes a generously sized hanging wooden magnetic chalkboard (approximately 85 x 45cm) and 75 vibrant, heat-transfer printed magnetic wooden pieces. The pieces depict a diverse range of people—spanning various ages, genders, ethnic backgrounds, and professions—along with complementary scenery like vehicles, buildings, trees, and animals. The board offers a dual purpose, featuring both magnetic and chalkboard surfaces for open-ended play, drawing, and storytelling. Whether children are inventing a bustling city scene, a quiet countryside, or a busy emergency scenario, they’re naturally developing language, empathy, sequencing, and communication skills. This resource is particularly effective in prompting conversations around inclusivity, social roles, and community helpers, supporting both imaginative and social-emotional development. The Magnetic Community Storytelling Board can be used individually or collaboratively, making it a powerful tool in both home and educational environments. Durable and visually engaging, this set supports hours of play-based learning while reinforcing key literacy and interpersonal skills. Suitable for children aged 3+ years, it’s a must-have for any early learning space.
Educational Benefits:
- Encourages children to verbalise thoughts, narrate stories, and use descriptive language.
- Helps children recognise and respect different professions and contributions in society.
- Supports empathy and inclusiveness through exposure to diverse characters and scenarios.
- Sparks imaginative play, allowing children to create endless storylines and situations.
Classroom Ideas:
- Have children create a collaborative story using magnetic pieces, each contributing a part.

- Encourage students to write or dictate a story based on the scene they create on the board.
