Polydron XL Natural Colours Set 3, 36 pcs

Imagine the fun of building castles, cars, tunnels, and boats, as easy as pie. And not just tiny versions, but ones that are big enough for your child to play inside. Here's the perfect solution if you promised your child a playhouse and are looking for a fun and easy way to keep your word. 

The large construction shapes invite your child to crawl inside, go around, put the pieces together, and stretch up on their tiptoes to put a roof on their playhouse or a top on their tower. Crawling into the builds to peek out, making tunnels to wiggle through, or competing to build the tallest structure all help develop your child’s proprioception.

We often associate building blocks with quiet sit-down play, but with Polydron XL, your child needs to be on their feet and actively move their body as they put the shapes together. That’s why Polydron is a wonderful gift idea, both for little bundles of energy and for kids who love to build and construct but tend to opt out of physical play.

Once the pieces have been put together, the constructions are quite sturdy. So you can leave your project overnight and come back to it the next day. Unless it’s super windy, your outdoor creations will usually stand strong overnight.
Working on projects together is also a great way for children to develop their collaboration and communication skills. When working as a group, they'll have to share the pieces and agree on where to place them. Polydron XL is compatible with Giant Polydron and all Giant accessories.

In this set, you'll find 36 pieces in natural colours:

• 12 squares with 4 windows
• 12 squares with peepholes
• 12 triangles with windows

Polydron XL is four times larger than Giant Polydron, and the two sizes are compatible - super convenient if you already have some Giant Polydron pieces around or want to combine them with this set.

The pieces have bumps on one side, so your child can recognise the shapes by feeling them - great for developing their tactile sense. Another special feature is that the pieces have (English) braille markings on the inside, which gives children another way of exploring and recognising the shapes.

Polydron is one of the biggest hits in our entire range of educational and developmental toys. They look simple – and that’s often a hallmark of the most successful designs.

All Polydron products can be assembled freely according to your own imagination or by following the included inspiration guides.

The plastic is lightweight, so it won't hurt if a piece falls on your head. However, the pieces aren’t too light - the wind won't carry off your creation on a breezy day at the playground. 

To clean your Polydron XL shapes, wipe them with a damp cloth and a bit of mild soap. You can also disinfect the pieces with rubbing alcohol.

You can absolutely let the kids play with their Polydron XL outside. The pieces are made of HDPE plastic, which is UV-resistant and resistant to cold and moisture. HDPE is also used to make recyclable bottles. Polydron recommends keeping your Giant Polydron shapes out of direct sunlight, but they are perfectly fine for outdoor play in the shade.
