I was delighted when I came across this product online. It is the same as the one I bought forty years ago for my children. As a former teacher I am wholesale 'into' the Montessori hands on learning style. Initially we used the blocks for free form art; discovering how shapes and colors fit together and what creative patterns could be derived. From my three year-old daughter I saw her, independently, construct a geometric flower. Math concepts came later and reinforced early education math concepts. I'm so pleased that my grown children can now share this wooden set with my grandchildren. Hands on learning is the best!!

my kids enjoy creating patterns just for fun. also useful for curriculum such as Math with Confidence

Perfect for free-play and for learning! I consider this a staple in my homeschooling. My boys use this to make patterns, learn shapes, build geometric robots, and learn basic fractions (a triangle is 1/6 of a hexagon).

These are long lasting, very sturdy and perfect for everyday use.

As a homeschool parent, these are exactly what I need to teach patterning, spatial awareness, etc to my kindergartener.

Love these for so many different uses. Mosaics, math counters, etc

Children can create fantastic designs with these wooden blocks. At the same time they are learning about shapes and angles and the relationship between the shapes. These blocks make it easier to explain math concepts. At first young children learn the shapes and colors and there are materials where you learn to fit the pattern blocks into predesigned pictures. The real fun is watching children make their own designs. My fifth graders loved making designs with these shapes.

My 7 yo grandson loves these! There are endless possibilities--play alone and make beautiful designs, play with another and try to duplicate what your friend has made, think outside the box and build 3-D!

I had these for my son 30 years ago. And now these are for a great nephew. They’re sturdy, beautiful, and open ended.

These wooden pattern blocks are much better than the thinner plastic version. The wooden blocks can stand up. I use them for active learning math time and also available at center time for imaginative play.

I ordered these for my grandson, who is on the Autism spectrum. He is highly functioning, but he is struggling with math. No sooner did he have the out of the box, but he created his entire family with them. If there was a way to share the photos of his immediate creations, I would. They were exceptional! What a joy to see him so happy!

My grandchildren are going crazy with creative designs and constructions.
