LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION! GENRE SET

LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION! GENRE SET

Uncle Goose makes wooden toys and decor handcrafter in Grand Rapids, Michigan, using choice materials from around the Great Lakes.  Uncle Goose toys are the building blocks of creativity. In a child's hands, Uncle Goose blocks can become anything. Use them to inspire your imagination. 100% Made in the USA.

Films make us feel. We may love one film, yet hate another. We may be terrified, thrilled, or amused. We may even feel indifferent or bored by some.

But what drives all these different emotions? Why does going to the movies make us feel the way we do? 

As you play with this block set, you can increase your film literacy. Discover the multiple genres and subgenres of your favorite films. See if you can guess a film’s genre from its description. 

Will you stack the blocks by historical order? Or use the blocks to discuss film conventions like character archetypes and iconography?

Go behind the scenes. Find out more about film genres and subgenres. Explore film history, font styles, archetypes, and iconography.

Sort, stack, and organize. Display and discuss. Enjoy the rich, emotional, full-bodied experience of film!

All of our blocks are too big to be a choking hazard. The wood we use is natural and uncoated. If a child licks or bites a block: they’ll be fine.  If you’re concerned about the ink, don’t be. We buy our inks from an American manufacturer that doesn’t use heavy metals.  Uncle Goose toys are untreated. No varnish, no polish, no sheen, no gloss.
100% Made in the USA.
