Haba Educational STEM System Movement and Sound, 2+ years , 4010168219790

Kullerbü Ding-a-Ling is a dynamic educational system in which the child follows the movement of solid beech wood balls through a slope, a steep turn and a sound finale. The movement is clearly visible, and the sound effect creates additional motivation and joy of the game.

The main highlight here is the musical rocker switch Ding-a-Ling, which converts movement into sound and makes the connection between action and result even more understandable for the child. The steep turn accelerates the ball and adds a sense of speed and momentum.

The system is part of Kullerbü - a colorful and flexibly expandable play world from HABA for children from 2 to 8 years. Thanks to the stable click system, the elements connect securely and remain stable during play. Different heights allow for richer constructions and more movement options.

This set is especially valuable for working with younger children because it combines movement, sound and a predictable result in a clear sequence. This is what makes the system suitable not only for play, but also for targeted activities with attention, tracking and cause-and-effect relationships.

Suitable for individual work, kindergarten and work with educators. Also suitable for speech therapists, resource teachers and children with SEN, as it supports tracking movement, concentration, independence and working with a clear, repeatable structure. The system also works in the spirit of the Montessori approach - through action, observation, repetition and the opportunity for the child to learn at their own pace.

How to play
The child assembles the elements, places the ball at the beginning and follows its movement along the track. When passing through the steep bend, the ball accelerates, and when reaching the Ding-a-Ling element, a sound effect is created. The structure can be rearranged and combined with other sets from the Kullerbü system.

Why children like it
Children love it because everything happens before their eyes and ears - the ball moves, accelerates and finally makes a sound. This creates a clear sense of a completed process and a desire for repeated repetition.

What it actually develops

• Fine motor skills - assembling, connecting and arranging the elements
• Eye-hand coordination - tracking movement
• Spatial thinking - understanding height, slope and direction
• Concentration - maintaining attention on a sequential process
• Causal thinking – motion, acceleration, sound and result

Educational focus and application

• STEM learning – motion, speed, sound and cause-and-effect relationships; 
• Construction and technology – building, combining and experimenting with elements.
