Bring prehistoric innovation to life with our Stone Age Discover Box. Designed to support creative thinking and design technology skills, this box invites pupils to explore how early humans identified challenges and developed ingenious solutions. Using real and replica artefacts, students investigate the evolution of tools—such as the axe—and experiment with their own prototypes through an iterative design process. With opportunities for teamwork, reflection and hands on making, this box encourages learners to think like prehistoric inventors, understand material choices, and discover how creativity shaped human survival.
