Water Wall Tubes (24Pk)

Everyone loves a good water wall, but they are only as fun as the components you use! This enormous 24 pack of tough, transparent tubes is the perfect upgrade for an existing wall or the foundation for an epic new creation. Forget fiddly connections; these tubes encourage children to plan and design complex pathways, testing their hypotheses about gravity and flow, which is simply fantastic Understanding the World science. Watching the water rush through the channels is mesmerising, prompting children to discuss, measure, and refine their designs. The sheer quantity means whole groups can be involved in the large scale construction, fostering collaborative problem solving and communication skills. It’s a resource that teaches physics and engineering principles while providing endless, splishy splashy entertainment.

Features

• Twenty Four Transparent Tubes: The generous quantity allows for the creation of intricate and large scale water channels, supporting collaboration and design technology.
• Durable Plastic Construction: Built to withstand the constant flow of water and the rigours of outdoor attachment and removal for continuous provision.
• See Through Material: Allows children to visually track the movement of water, supporting scientific observation and prediction.
• Varied Lengths and Angles: The assortment provides complex planning opportunities, promoting spatial reasoning and problem solving in mathematics.
• Easy to Connect: Designed for simple attachment to various vertical surfaces, encouraging independence in setting up and changing the learning environment.

   

  Benefits

  • Investigates Fluid Dynamics: Children gain practical experience with gravity, speed, and flow, addressing key outcomes in Understanding the World.
  • Develops Design and Technology Skills: Planning and building a functional water wall pathway encourages prototyping, testing, and modification of structures.
  • Promotes Collaborative Communication: Working together to secure and test the tubes strengthens negotiation and shared thinking skills, central to PSED.
  • Enhances Critical Thinking: Observing where the water flows and identifying blockages hones analytical and problem solving capabilities.
  • Supports Mathematical Language: Discussions around 'longer', 'shorter', 'faster', and 'slower' naturally enrich comparative and descriptive language development.
