Our story
KAPLA Clubs UK
A few years ago, I (Jennifer) came across the KAPLA wooden game when I was looking for an engaging present for my primary school aged twin boys.
From the day they opened their first KAPLA® box, they were engrossed into building all sorts of amazing structures. They created seemingly complicated towers, marble runs, bridges, trains, etc. In fact, the whole family was addicted. Even my mother in law who was building train tracks and my husband who would spend hours building complex bridges once the children were asleep!
After speaking to a few of my friends in France I realised that KAPLA® was actually widely known in France and that most French children and schools were using the wooden planks
The KAPLA® game
KAPLA® is an amazing concept: identical planks of untreated sustainable pine wood that you stack together to build anything you can imagine. It is a versatile educational game used in schools around the world but we haven’t caught onto it yet in the UK. It allows children to strengthen their concentration, perseverance, spatial awareness, problem solving, logical thinking and of course team work! Your child will have so much fun with geometry, physics, maths and engineering that they won’t even realise how much they are learning.
I started working closely with KAPLA® in France to find a unique way do deliver the benefits of this product to the UK. This is how KAPLA Clubs was born. I am so excited to be able to offer children from age 4 to 104 the opportunity to test their building skills to the limit!

S Birchley29 February 2024It was fun to make snd looked amazing once finished.
J23 February 2024We as a pta arranged Kapla to attend my daughters Primary School for a 1 and a half days workshop. Jennifer kept the children engaged throughout and was very organised in her methods and creativity. All of the children enjoyed today and they were all capable of building something from reception class up to year 6 juniors. We had a town, tower block buildings, circular bridges, octopus, giraffes that were incredibly high! Chickens, and many other smaller pieces like trees, boats, sandpits, pools, and a crab! The parents were able to view at the end of school on the last day and then 3 classes were selected to help demolish! Which was also very enjoyable for them! The method is very clever and the finished activity is a masterpiece! I’d highly recommend for any school or team building activities.

Sharon Messenger23 February 2024Had Kapla at our school today. 100% recommend this. It was amazing. Children loved it and want it back already. Fabulous ideas and very well organised. Book it, you won't be disappointed.
Vanessa Buckley7 February 2024A fabulous day for the age 3 -7 year olds. Each class were excited by the opportunity to build with Kapla, which was new to all the children. Jennifer was amazing with each year group, with a gentle tone and was actively involved giving clear instructions. Great way to help children with team building and mindfulness. Thank you.
