The My First Polydron Gears Set is a dynamic hands-on learning tool that introduces young learners to the fundamental principles of movement, engineering, and design. Specially developed for early childhood education, this 35-piece set allows children to build unique gear-based constructions and then activate them using turning handles to observe how each gear wheel moves in unison.

Children can experiment with both 2D flat layouts and 3D upright structures, offering a flexible and engaging play experience that strengthens problem-solving and planning skills. With 5 square frames, 13 squares with four holes, and 18 gears in two contrasting colours, children are free to explore how gears connect, interact and transfer motion-laying the groundwork for mechanical understanding at an early age.

Educational Benefits:

  • Introduces basic engineering and mechanical concepts through gear movement
  • Encourages cause-and-effect learning through hands-on gear manipulation
  • Develops spatial awareness and logical thinking while constructing functioning systems
  • Strengthens fine motor skills and early design capabilities

Classroom Activity Ideas:

  • Build a 2D gear chain and observe which way each gear turns
  • Explore how the placement of gears affects direction and speed
  • Work in teams to build a large interconnected gear wall or sculpture
  • Use colour matching with gears for additional sorting and visual recognition
