Wedgits

Wedgits are rhombus shaped blocks that are wonderful for fine motor skills and problem solving. And self-confidence. The blocks stack, nest and wedge together to create unique structures. We have wedgits available at "table toys" and children are often exploring them. We also have pattern design cards that allow children to copy patterns. Children really enjoy these, especially with an adult present to help support and encourage learning. It's great for older children as well. They have designs up to level D.  
Check out what the children can do!!

This guy cruised through level A and
most of the way through level B.
Very impressive!

He was trying not to do one, but just
couldn't help himself.

Not wedgits, but still creative!

This cutie said, "I'm very pleased with
myself" after she finished a design.
yes, indeed. 

And another one. 

Creating with magnetic sponge blocks.
