What is the tickit SiliSoft Rocket Stacker (Rainbow)?

The SiliSoft Rocket Stacker (Rainbow) is a six-piece stacking toy made from food-grade silicone by tickit. The chunky, smooth sections fit together easily to create a simple stacking rocket shape, and the toy is suitable from birth for use at home or in an early years setting.

How it helps

Each of the six rocket sections is designed to be easy for very young hands to grip, stack and nest, giving children a straightforward way to practise hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills as they build. The set measures approximately 144mm in height and 85mm in diameter when fully stacked, making it a manageable size for little hands to hold and manipulate. Because the silicone is soft, smooth and dishwasher safe, it also gives children a genuine tactile experience to explore through touch.

For schools

• Well suited to an early years or nursery setting as a shared tactile resource, giving several children a simple, repeatable stacking task to work through.
• Fits naturally into Physical Development (motor skills, construction), Expressive Arts and Design (imaginative play) and Personal Development (sensory) areas of learning.
• Suitable from birth through EYFS, and durable enough for daily handling across a setting.
• Dishwasher-safe silicone construction makes it practical to keep hygienic for shared use in a classroom or SEND base.

For parents and home use

• Gives very young children an open-ended stacking activity that builds coordination without needing adult instruction.
• The soft, chunky silicone pieces are gentle on small hands and mouths, making the toy approachable for babies and toddlers exploring by touch.
• Being dishwasher safe means it is quick and easy to keep clean during everyday family use.
• The simple stack-and-nest design means children can play with it in different ways as their skills develop, from early tactile exploration to more deliberate stacking.

Supporting children with SEND

Stacking toys like the Rocket Stacker are often used to support children with SEND because they combine sensory feedback with a clear, repeatable physical task. The smooth silicone texture gives children a calming tactile input, while the stacking action supports fine motor planning and hand-eye coordination at whatever pace suits the individual child, which fits well with a graduated approach to early physical and sensory development.

Whether you are a parent looking for a simple, screen-free toy for tactile play at home, or a school building up an early years or SEND sensory resource, this stacking set gives children a genuine hands-on activity they can return to again and again.
