Oh, the feel of a nice, thick (1 cm.) wooden pattern block! Don't tell your children that these aren't just toys! The bright, enticing primary colors seem to draw even the smallest of our children into play. Proportioned shapes allow for the construction of infinite designs. Even before they begin to use them for "work" on symmetry, congruence, similarity, measurement, fractional relationships, counting, sorting, and geometry, they are discovering the unique relationships between the blocks and getting plenty of experience in patterning and spatial problem-solving. We've had hours of enjoyment with our set and, with 250 blocks to the bucket, there's enough for several children to construct or work simultaneously.
This durable set of wooden pattern blocks provides a lifetime of use. Perfect for counting, sorting, linear measurement and matching. Each set contains 250 pieces.
Sets include green triangle, orange square, red trapezoid, tan rhombus, blue parallelogram, and yellow hexagon. Sets come in either plastic or wood, and vary in thickness and quantity.
