Big Crane Construction Set - 13 Piece Set

There’s a big build happening in your small world area – and this Big Crane Construction Set is running the site. Towering at nearly 40cm tall, the crane actually works, with a swivel arm and moving parts that lift, lower and rotate cargo with satisfying precision. No batteries. No beeps. Just good old-fashioned manual labour.

This 13-piece small world set includes a crane, vehicles, workers and accessories, making it ideal for construction-themed play in EYFS and Key Stage One settings. It fits beautifully into any small world area and is compatible with major wooden railway systems, so you can expand the site to your heart’s content.

This is a sturdy, tactile resource that gives children the tools to explore the world of work, machines and teamwork through open-ended play. It’s the perfect way to support Understanding the World while building vocabulary around movement, jobs, directions and everyday problem-solving.

Also great for adding real purpose to small world play sets, from solo building projects to large-scale cooperative schemes. Just don’t forget the builder’s brew. Why not pair with our Wooden Construction Vehicles - Set of 5, Construction Medium Vehicles - Set of 5, or Construction Workers - Set of 4?
