Does your child love to build and construct fascinating towers and structures? Then they will love our tickit® Rainbow Architect Set consisting of four geometric shapes (squares, rectangles, triangles, arches) nested together with the inner block in each nesting group being a solid 3D shape. Made from beautiful smooth solid beechwood with a natural woodgrain finish in seven different colours, these shape sets will allow your child to unlock their creativity and innovation.

Learning through play, the nesting sets can be used to design and construct towers, houses or sculptures; create homes for small world play people or animals, whilst encouraging and developing mathematical logic to sort pieces into the shapes that match by colour, shape or size; learning the geometric properties of common shapes; exploring size and scale; using mathematical language (larger, smaller, taller, wider) and for improving language skills and descriptive vocabulary.

Nursery World Awards 2019
Described as an "outstanding" resource with "endless" learning opportunities, these sets were used in one of the settings to build different objects, nest together and colour match, and produced lots of "rich language, moving and handling and collaborative play".

The smooth edges are safe for younger children, and a child with special educational needs in one setting loved them, and said "rainbow" for all of them because of the colours. Testers commended the open-endedness of the product and their value for exploring a range of concepts - colour, size, shapes, curved and straight - as well as how shapes fit together.

A very "versatile and open-ended resource" [said] one setting whose children used them to create patterns and design rooms which they filled with small-world play people and furniture. The shapes are also useful for helping the children to learn colours, shapes and sizes and use mathematical terminology such as "larger", "smaller, "taller" and "wider", which is great for broadening their descriptive vocabulary.

"I would definitely recommend them to other settings - and they are a timeless resource that we look forward to using with the children for many years to come!" enthused one tester.

Set includes: 28 wooden shapes in 7 different colours and 4 different geometric shapes (triangles, squares, rectangles, arches).
Size: Largest arch L 14.8cm, largest rectangle H 14.8cm, largest square H 14.8cm, largest triangle H 14.8cm.
Age: Suitable from 12 months.
Product Code: 73420

Fantastic open-ended toys

The rainbow architect Sets are the most played with toys in our house. They are brilliant for all sorts for play. My girls love to stack them using the panel sets, build houses, zoos, use them for animal enclosures and lots of other imaginative play! They have also used them for colour matching and shape play. Highly recommend.
