About this item:
children comfortable with shapes and combining individual shapes to make new identifiable objects, developing visual spatial skills. The wood-framed carrying case opens to reveal two 13" x 10.5" magnetic white-boards. Quality, wood blocks include unusual shapes (arcs, semi-circles, irregular shaped multi-sided figures) along with the more common squares, circles, and triangles (two of most shapes and more of a few). All pieces are .25" thick. Joining solid, festive colors (ocean blue, purple, chartreuse, and tangerine) are blocks with pat-terns stripes, swirls, stars, circles, etc. Sizes range from .75" circles to 1.25" squares to 1.5" x 3" for some of the largest pieces. There are 50 patterns (25 double-sided cards) to replicate. The result is whimsical renditions of familiar objects vehicles, flowers, and animals with a few crazy characters just to keep things interesting. The cord handles paired with the latching case means this toy can travel with you.
