This is our biggest ever Stick-O set... in a branded, stackable, storage box and featuring 96 of our most popular chunky magnetic sticks, balls, shapes and accessories.
It is designed to offer nurseries, pre-schools, childminders and children’s centres a safe ‘tip-out-and-play’ option for groups of young children aged from 18 months old.
But the addition of the colourful Shapes And Numbers Learning Book extends creative play into educational play and encourages older pre-school children to develop their Early Years maths language while using Stick-O shapes to make numbers from 1-10 and six common polygons.
An A4 flip-book enables teachers to demonstrate the properties of numbers 1-10 and six polygon shapes - and show children how to make them in planar form using Stick-O pieces.
Two new magnetic rattle pieces (a ball and D-shape) add audio sensory play to the fun of construction, while the 96 pieces supplied includes 23 Stick-O short rods, 2 long rods, 8 curved rods, 16 balls, 10 connecting discs, 4 hemispheres, 3 half eggshells, large and small cones and fun accessories like feet, ears and shoes.
Stick-O pieces feature the supersafe Rotating Magnets System (RMS) pioneered by Magformers, where small but powerful neodymium disc magnets are safely sealed inside the main pieces. Because these magnets rotate internally, they always connect when two pieces are brought together, making construction play frustration free for little hands.
