Really good resource
My daughter has found getting her head around three-dimensional shapes difficult but these are absolutely spot-on. It allows her to look at the vertices sides and really be able to feel and imagine them being see-through also helps her to understand how they’re drawn in books. Would definitely recommend these to anyone whose children are struggling with three dimensional shapes.

Geometric Solids
I brought this to help my special needs, home schooled children to understand 3d shapes properly.They came in a well packaged, sturdy box. The shapes are a good size for children's hands. They are translucent which makes seeing there is an area (or any space at all) inside easy for my autistic son. They colours make them very attractive. Mine like shining torches through them. They played with them for about an hour today and it has already improved their understanding. There is an informative leaflet with ideas within the box. Really useful, tactile and pretty shapes. This is numeracy and fun.

Lovely shapes but can break
The shapes are fab and work really well with the lightbox as we hoped. They are also good for building, but some of the clear panels underneath the shapes have fallen out when dropped, etc.

Fantastic resource
These have been a fantastic tool for my two children for the past two years. It's one thing trying to explain 3D shapes on paper, but to actually hold them in your hands and see them physically is another. They're colourful and quite robust, and have lasted all this time. I'd highly recommend them for homelearning!

Can trap kids fingers
The shapes are very nice, and my son loved them, but they have clear removable panels, presumably so they can be filled, and these panels have a small hole in them with a stopper, just the right size for a five year old to get their fingers stuck. Which my son did within 24 hours of having the set.Fortunately the plastic is brittle and easy to break and he didn't suffer any injuries, but he did lose half of his sphere and was very upset. This is a nice set, but I feel a warning about the finger sized holed is needed.

Very attractive, well built learning tool
Very good educational tool. My daughter loved touching and looking at these. The fact they are clear makes it very easy for counting the edges, faces, vertices etc. They feel nice in your hand and interesting to look at which always helps maths. We have dropped one of these by mistake and it didn't break despite falling on a tiled floor so quite sturdy.
