Polydron Magnetic Class Set - Sphera

This activity strengthens important skills which are wonderful for your child's well-being and ability to learn new things:

• Wonderful for stimulating your child's visual perception.
• Benefits hand-eye coordination, which you use for instance when kicking or catching a ball that comes flying at you in the playground, or when cutting a straight line with scissors.

Suitable for children aged 5 yrs. to 11 yrs.

Building and constructing is fun, a bit time consuming, and very educational. We could easily write a whole book about how this type of play benefits your child's fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and creativity as well as interest in entrepreneurship and understanding of geometry.

With this type of play, your child also gets practical experience with solving problems when it comes to figuring out how to assemble the construction so it doesn't suddenly fall over. Your child's construction play with all sorts of building materials develops their patience. Also, it's just so cool and satisfying to construct a tall, tall tower or build the world's longest marble run, or to maybe make a really cool row of dominoes and film it as it topples.

Do you know Polydron?

The Toy Academy aunties and uncles have a permanent play date with Polydron from England. Polydron's original toys were
pieces of solid plastic that you can put together in endless ways. The original pieces can still be found, and they delight and entertain children with imaginative and developmental play in many families, schools, and kindergartens.

Now, there are several different types of Polydron. Polydron MAG are magnetic building pieces, which are also available with mirrors and in models suitable for young children under 3. You can also buy giant XL Polydron sets, which are great for building extra large constructions - even a real playhouse. Polydron pieces can be enjoyed outside, and they can last almost a lifetime. A common feature of all Polydron variants is that they're very robust toys that you can donate or sell after you're done with them.
