IGLU Mini Steps Soft Play Block – Green Climbing Block 40 x 40 x 20 cm

IGLU Mini Steps Soft Play Block Green – Soft step block for crawling, climbing, and exploring

With the IGLU Mini Steps Soft Play Block in Green, you can turn a small corner in the play area into a space for movement and discovery. The stair shape introduces different heights to floor play and invites young children to crawl, climb, and explore for themselves how to move from one level to another.

The Mini Steps can be used independently as a compact soft-play element, or combined with other IGLU play shapes to build a small movement course. By arranging the parts in different ways, new possibilities for active play, building, and imagination are created.

The block measures 40 x 40 x 20 cm, making it compact enough for smaller play spaces, while the different steps still provide enough variety to discover height differences.

The core consists of firm, lightweight PE foam that retains its shape during repeated use. The exterior is finished with durable PVC artificial leather, making the surface smooth and easy to clean.

The green version adds a fresh color to the play area and is easy to combine with neutral, natural, and other soft tones.

IGLU recommends the Mini Steps for children from approximately 6 to 36 months. The play block is made in Latvia.

Compact soft-play climbing block

The Mini Steps consists of one soft stair shape.

The different levels invite children to, for example:

• Crawl up
• Move back down
• Place hands on a higher surface
• Approach the block from different directions
• Discover a route for themselves

It is precisely the simple shape that makes the block versatile in use.

Dimensions of 40 x 40 x 20 cm

The IGLU Mini Steps has a size of:

40 x 40 x 20 cm

This compact size makes the block suitable for, for example:

• Children's room
• Playroom
• Play corner in the living room
• An existing soft-play setup

Because it is only one element, you can easily add it without having to set up a large play set right away.

Stair shape with different heights

The surface consists of several levels.

As a result, a child's posture changes slightly while moving.

A child can, for example:

• First support themselves on a lower level
• Then move to a higher step
• Shift weight forward
• Descend again

This creates a simple movement challenge that fits active floor play.

Crawling and climbing

The Mini Steps is designed for children who like to move and explore different shapes.

During use, the block can invite to:

• Crawling
• Climbing
• Stepping over
• Weight shifting
• Exploring height differences

This can offer opportunities to practice movements and coordination through play.

We deliberately describe this as an opportunity for practice and discovery, not as a guarantee of a specific developmental effect.

Recommended age 6 to 36 months

IGLU recommends the Mini Steps for children of approximately:

6 to 36 months

Within this age period, the block can be used in different ways.

A younger child might, for example, primarily:

• Move against the block
• Crawl over a low level
• Touch and explore the shape

An older child can later use the Mini Steps as:

• Climbing block
• Obstacle
• Part of a course
• Part of imaginative play

The actual use remains dependent on the motor skills of the individual child.

Play that changes with age

One of the advantages of simple soft-play shapes is that children interact with them differently at different stages.

In the beginning, it may mainly be about:

• Crawling
• Reaching
• Supporting
• Discovering height differences

Later, there may be more room for:

• Climbing
• Building
• Combining
• Imaginative play

As a result, the Mini Steps remains interesting at different times.

Practicing coordination through play

When a child moves from one level to another, different movements must be coordinated.

Consider, for example:

• Moving a hand first
• Then a knee or foot
• Bringing the body forward
• Maintaining balance while moving

The stair shape can therefore invite to practicing coordination during free play.

Discovering space and shapes

The Mini Steps can be combined with other soft-play shapes.

When children try to place different elements together, they can playfully discover:

• Which shapes fit together
• How different heights work next to each other
• How a route can be built
• What changes when you move an element

This can provide space for spatial awareness and creative play.

Create a small route yourself

Combine the Mini Steps with, for example:

• A ramp
• A wave shape
• A cube
• Other soft play blocks

This way you can create a small movement route that can be adjusted again and again.

Other soft-play elements are sold separately.

Can be used separately

You do not need a complete soft-play set to use the Mini Steps.

The block can also be placed independently as a simple activity.

This is nice when you:

• Have limited space
• Want to start with one soft-play element first
• Want to expand an existing play corner
• Might want to add more shapes later

Can be combined with other IGLU soft-play shapes

The Mini Steps can become part of a larger modular play environment.

You can, for example:

• Place the block against a ramp
• Put it next to a wave block
• Include it between other shapes
• Use it as a starting or ending point of a course

By changing the setup, the same block takes on a different role each time.

Free and imaginative play

A stair shape doesn't always have to be just a staircase.

Within imaginative play, the block can, for example, turn into:

• A podium
• A mountain
• A step
• An obstacle
• A part of a self-built route

Simple shapes, in particular, leave a lot of room for your own ideas.

Firm PE foam

The core of the Mini Steps is made of PE foam.

According to the product information, this material is:

• Firm
• Lightweight
• Dimensionally stable during repeated use

This ensures that the shape remains recognizable and usable during daily play.

Lightweight and easy to move

Because the block is lightweight, you can relatively easily move it within the play area.

This is practical when you:

• Want to create a different play route
• Want to rearrange the room
• Need more floor space
• Want to add other soft-play shapes

This keeps the play environment flexible.

PVC artificial leather upholstery

Around the PE foam core is an upholstery of PVC artificial leather.

This outer layer gives the block a smooth surface and helps to protect the foam during daily use.

Additionally, the surface is easy to clean.

Easy to keep clean

IGLU advises cleaning the Mini Steps with:

• A soft cloth
• Mild soap

This makes it easy to remove dust and minor stains after playing.

The provided product information does not mention more extensive maintenance instructions, so we do not add them ourselves.

Green – Fresh color for the play area

This version has the color:

Green

The green color gives the Mini Steps a fresh and playful look.

Green combines easily with, among others:

• White
• Beige
• Ecru
• Grey Beige
• Brown
• Natural wood tones
• Other shades of green

As a result, the block fits both in a colorful and in a more calmly furnished play area.

Combining green with natural tones

Green combines beautifully with natural colors.

Think for example of:

• Wood
• Beige
• Brown
• Ecru
• Cream

This gives the play area a soft, natural look without the whole becoming too busy.

For daily floor play

The Mini Steps is intended for soft play on the floor.

You don't need to assemble the block.

Place it on a suitable, stable surface and ensure sufficient free space around the element.

Then the game can start immediately.

Compact but versatile

With a size of 40 x 40 x 20 cm, the Mini Steps takes up relatively little space.

Yet the block can be used for:

• Crawling
• Climbing
• Moving
• Combining
• Imaginative play

This way, one compact element offers different play possibilities.

Can be used from multiple sides

The Mini Steps can be approached from different directions.

This means you can easily rotate the shape and set it up again.

This changes the route without needing to add new toys.

Repetition is part of the play

Young children often find it interesting to try the same movement several times in a row.

The Mini Steps lends itself well to this.

For example:

• Crawling up
• Moving back down
• Turning around
• Starting over

This way, a simple route can remain inviting for a longer time.
