Polydron Construction Set - Crystal, 164 pcs
Bring geometry to life with a splash of colour! This brilliant starter set inspires children to build, explore, and experiment while discovering concepts like colour, shape, geometry, construction, and math through hands-on play.
What makes Polydron Crystal extra special is its translucent pieces. Children can peek inside their creations, see how the shapes fit together, and develop a deeper understanding of 3D forms and spatial awareness.
The fun really lights up when you add a torch, place the models on a light table, or let the sunshine shine through them.
Watch colourful shadows dance across the floor or walls as the translucent pieces reveal a whole new side of every creation.
                          Â
Children of all ages can enjoy this versatile set. Younger builders can create simple shapes and colourful patterns, while older children can tackle more advanced constructions and explore mathematical concepts through play.
The set includes 164 pieces: 40 squares, 100 equilateral triangles, 24 pentagons, and an inspiration booklet.
Take the fun outdoors too! To keep your Crystal Polydron looking its best, store it in the shade or bring it indoors after play. It's made from durable MABS plastic (the transparent version of ABS plastic, a material commonly used for food storage containers), though it isn't designed for prolonged exposure to sunlight.
What makes this product special
Toys for learning through play
Play is essential for children’s learning, well-being, and development. Through play, children learn about themselves and the world around them.
Play helps children:
• stay curious
• focus and become absorbed in what they're doing
• take on age-appropriate challenges
• build confidence
We believe children learn best by doing things for themselves:
• by making mistakes
• by getting messy
• by falling down and getting back up again
Resilience, confidence, and courage grow through experience, one small step at a time.
That's why we carefully choose toys that encourage independence, imagination, movement, and social skills — offering just the right balance of support, freedom, and opportunities to grow.
Carefully selected toys
We carefully handpick every toy from the vast world of toys available today. The only toys that make it into our range are ones we'd be happy to give our own children.
Every toy at ToyAcademy should:
• support learning through play
• be made from durable, high-quality materials
• be safe and enjoyable for children to play with

Suitable for children aged 4 yrs. to 6 yrs.Constructing and building is fun, a bit time consuming, and very educational. We can certainly write a long essay about how building and construction play develops your child's hand-eye coordination, fine motor skills, and creativity as well as their interest in entrepreneurship and understanding of geometry.
With this type of play, your child also gets practical experience with solving problems as they figure out how to build the construction so it doesn't fall over. Your child's construction play with all sorts of building blocks, pieces, or magnets develops their patience. And it's just so cool and satisfying to construct a tall, tall tower or build the world's longest marble run, or to make a really cool row of dominoes and film it as it topples.
The activity is great for your child's well-being and ability to learn new things:
- Benefits hand-eye coordination, a skill we use for example when cutting with scissors, pouring a glass of water without spilling and making a mess, or when catching or kicking the ball that comes flying at us in the playground.
