Polydron XL Set 2, 24 pcs
Imagine the fun of building castles, cars, tunnels, and boats, as easy as pie. And not just tiny versions, but big enough that your child can play inside them afterwards. Here's the perfect solution if you promised your child a playhouse and are looking for a fun and easy way to make it happen.Â
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 inside the structures to peek out, building tunnels to wriggle through, or competing to build the tallest tower 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 are snapped together, the constructions are quite sturdy. So you can leave your project overnight and pick up where you left off the next day. Unless it’s super windy, your outdoor creations will usually stand strong overnight.
Polydron XL is compatible with Giant Polydron and accessories.
This set has 24 pieces:
- 8 squares with 4 windows
- 8 squares with 16 peepholes
- 8 triangles with windows
Polydron XL is four times larger than Giant Polydron. Do you already have some Giant Polydron pieces, or would you like to add them on to this set? No problem, because Polydron XL and Giant are compatible with each other.
The pieces have bumps on one side, so children can tell the shapes apart by feeling the textures - great for their tactile sense. Another feature is that the insides of the Polydron pieces have (English) braille markings, which gives children another way of exploring and recognising the shapes.
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.Â
Polydron XL can be wiped clean with a damp cloth and a bit of mild soap. You can also disinfect the pieces.
The pieces are made from 100% recycled plastic.

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

Building and constructing is educational, fun, and also time consuming. We can certainly write a long book about how building and construction play stimulates your child's fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and creativity as well as their understanding of geometry and interest in entrepreneurship.
With this type of play, your child also gets practical experience with solving problems as they figure out how to put together the construction so it doesn't suddenly collapse. Your child's construction play with all sorts of building materials develops their imagination and patience. Also, it's just so satisfying to construct a tall, tall tower or build the world's longest marble run, or to maybe create a really cool domino field and film it as it topples.

- Stimulates hand-eye coordination, a skill we use for example when we throw, catch, or kick a ball that comes flying at us in PE class, when we cut in a straight line line with a pair of scissors, or when we want to pour water into a glass without spilling.

Do you know Polydron?
English Polydron is one of ToyAcademy's oldest play buddies. A lot has happened since the first classic Polydron came on the market: pieces of sturdy plastic that you can put together in many different ways. The original pieces are still sold, and they bring joy to children with imaginative and developmental play in many schools, kindergartens, and private homes.Today, you can get many different Polydron variants. Maybe you've heard of the magnetic building blocks Polydron MAG, which also come with mirrors or as baby toys. You can also buy giant XL Polydron sets which are ideal for building big creations, and which can also be enjoyed outside and last for like a century. In fact, you can build a whole playhouse out of Polydron pieces. A common feature of all Polydron variants is that they're really robust toys that you can donate or sell after you're done with them.
