Product Description:

What's colorful, chunky, three-dimensional, and challenging? Pattern Play 3D provides all that. The 22 wooden blocks are based on extensions of a 1" cube (i.e. two-cube "rods"; three-cube an-gles, etc.) and feel good in your hands. The wooden storage tray serves as a building tray, provid-ing just enough friction to keep blocks in place as you build/replicate the patterns. 20 double-sided cards provide 40 increasingly difficult designs to replicate. And you build these designs up from the bottom rather than across a flat surface, approximating animals or geometric sculptures. Although the pattern projects are challenging, it's the colors that make them engaging; not your typical primary colors but fuchsia, teal, turquoise, chartreuse, grape, lemon, and tangerine.

Take play to another dimension and discover your inner architect! Pattern Play 3D combines building and imagination to make the perfect STEM learning activity! The goal is to recreate 2D patterns into 3D structures. Manipulate the multi-shaped and vibrant blocks to successfully duplicate the balance, composition and geometry featured on each 2D instruction puzzle card. Watch stunning modern art patterns, towers, pyramids and all sorts of abstract creations defy gravity! The double-sided pattern cards are numbered in order of difficulty, ranging from beginner to expert. With each build becoming more challenging, patience and confidence is gained through trial and error. Once you've mastered recreating the impressive structures get creative and design your ownthe possibilities with these big chunky blocks are endless! This 3D enrichment tool inspires hours of continuous play and will quickly become a favorite!

Great toy for kids who like building and solving puzzles
My 5 year old son loves to build. His 6 year old friend, a girl, loves puzzles. Together they have enjoyed going through the cards and building each structure. I take the set out every few months, and they haven't gotten bored yet. This purchase was money well spent.
