Tangram

I found the interesting 'Tangram' a few days ago in the browse-worthy shop Warden. That man stocks almost everything! It's a bit overly priced for pieces made out of plastic - of course, made in China as everything seems to be nowadays - but I picked it up nevertheless, since I think Ms.E will spend many happy hours with it, giving her creativity full rein.

It says 5+ years on the box, but any bright toddler will find it fascinating to put the different shapes together in a myriad ways to see what they can come up with. The Montessori system deals with shapes anyway, so it's never too early to introduce this puzzle.

My husband says there should be a wooden set somewhere in the house - Yay!
