Grimm's Triangle Square & Circle Geometric Shape Blocks

The set comprises 30 wooden blocks in triangle, square and circle shapes, packed in a carton with ideas for playing. The blocks are made for matching, building and stacking, and let children explore geometric shapes in a hands on way.

The blocks are made of lime wood finished with a non toxic water based colour stain. This natural finish makes them non slip, so the blocks stay where they are put and hold their position while children build and stack.

The source lists an age group of 3 years and over. At this age children can handle the colourful shapes for matching and stacking games and begin to explore ideas like geometric form and simple fractions through play.

Each block is about 10cm in length. This size makes the triangle, square and circle shapes easy to pick up, feel and compare, which helps children experience each form in a tactile way while they build.

The source states that this Grimm's Spiel and Holz building set is handcrafted in Europe. Each block is made and coloured by hand, so slight variations in tone and grain between pieces are natural and part of their handmade character.

The blocks give children a chance to feel a cube, a circle and a triangle and to experience them as physical shapes. The source describes them as a tool for exploring geometric shapes and the concept of fractions through building and matching.

These geometric shapes stack and match well with other Grimm's wooden blocks and building sets. Their non slip finish helps them combine with coloured blocks for larger constructions during open ended building play.
