There is so much fun and educational content in this set that children will be fascinated by it from the start! With 140 separate clear coloured components (plus a selection/games dice) which come in a handy screw top cookie jar for easy access, there are enough pieces for an individual child or a large group of children working together. The pieces come in 6 transparent colours (red, yellow, blue, green, purple, and orange) and six different shapes: hexagon, square, trapezoid, triangle, diamond, and parallelogram.
 
These mathematical shapes can be arranged into mosaic pictures and patterns on a desktop or, even better, on a light panel, where their colours look brilliant. Children will soon recognise the shapes by their correct names and want to use them when working as a team to build a beautiful scene, pattern, or mosaic. While having fun, children will learn a great deal about shapes, colours, picking, placing, arranging, and symmetry, as well as improve their fine motor skills. A must for every classroom. To give an idea of size, the square is approximately 25mm in size, and the hexagon is 50mm in diameter.
