Translucent Colour Boxes, 27 pcs

This set includes 27 translucent boxes in three different sizes and three colours. The colours — cyan, magenta, and yellow — can be stacked and combined in all sorts of ways to create lots of new colour combinations.

Your child can experiment with mixing two or three colours and watch new shades appear. The boxes can be stacked in different ways, for example by size or at fun, wonky angles.  

The boxes are especially lovely to play with on a light table, where the colours really come to life.

Let your child play without first having to think about how the toy works. Here, there is no right or wrong way to play, and your child doesn't have to follow any rules. The goal is simply playing and being in the present moment. At Toy Academy, we call this type of play intuitive play. It's also referred to as "open ended play". Let your child play by using their intuition and seize the chance to watch how it unfolds.

Unlike types of play which are aimed at achieving a particular result, intuitive play will most often give you an interesting peek into your child’s independent problem-solving skills, thought process, and imagination.
