Mill House
with Crank Handle Pump and Mill Wheel
Order number 5.09700
The Mill House creatively combines our popular Stilt House, our Crank Handle Pump, a wooden channel and our wooden Mill Wheel. This unique combination creates a Mill House with a particularly high play value. It offers a versatile, adaptable space that can be harmoniously integrated with a variety of terrains and opens numerous discovery and play opportunities for children.
Central to the play is a fully functioning mill wheel, which is set in motion by pumping water using our Crank Handle Pump and a wooden channel. Children can independently guide water into the channel and watch how it drives the Mill Wheel. This way, they discover the exciting effect of water on mechanical movements in a playful way.
Our Mill House not only encourages individual play, but also interaction between children. Playing with the water in the Mill Wheel and channel encourages children to work together: they must decide how much water they need to get the shutter to open and the mill wheel to turn. This process requires communication, teamwork and joint problemsolving, which strengthens the children‘s social skills and promotes an awareness of cooperation and responsibility.
