Allow children to explore the fascinating world of shapes, geometry, and magnetism with the Magnetic Polydron Sphera 36-piece set. Recognised as the world's leading product in its field, Polydron is a trusted and high-quality educational tool that has been used in classrooms for over 30 years. This set includes strong, vibrantly coloured magnetic panels that easily connect, offering a dynamic and hands-on learning experience. Designed to visually and tactilely support the exploration of 2D and 3D mathematics, this set nurtures creativity, problem-solving, and a deep understanding of geometric concepts. Compatible with all Magnetic Polydron sets except Mega Mag, this resource is ideal for introducing children to STEM-based learning environments while fostering a love for construction and discovery. The self-correcting nature of the Magnetic Polydron Sphera encourages independent problem-solving, allowing children to create recognisable geometric shapes with ease. Whether used in a classroom or early childhood centre, this outstanding educational tool enables students to investigate geometry, spatial awareness, and design principles in a highly engaging way.
This 36-piece set includes seven different shapes, allowing for the construction of spherical models. The set consists of:
- 8 sphere pieces
- 4 cylinder pieces
- 12 circle pieces
- 4 cone pieces
- 4 anti-quadrant pieces
- 2 square pieces
- 2 right angle triangle pieces
- 1 educational poster
Polydron is committed to exceptional safety and quality, ensuring all products meet necessary safety standards. Made from high-quality, non-toxic plastic, this set is designed for durability, offering long-lasting educational value for generations to come.
