Magnetic Polydron - Transparent Shapes - 70 Pieces

The Magnetic Polydron Transparent Shapes Set is an exciting resource for hands-on exploration of geometry, magnetism, and design. With 70 translucent magnetic shapes in six vibrant colours, this award-winning set combines mathematical learning with open-ended sensory play. Ideal for use on a light table or in the construction area, children can build both 2D patterns and 3D models with ease, watching how light interacts with their creations.

The magnetic panels connect with self-correcting precision, enabling young learners to experiment freely while developing spatial reasoning and problem-solving skills. This versatile set offers rich learning experiences in STEM, maths, and science, all while supporting creativity and design thinking. Suitable for early childhood environments and beyond, it's a tool that engages children and adults alike in meaningful and joyful play.
