We are in love with the new Geometric Shapes Building Set from Learning Resources! I was sent this toy to review and have one to giveaway to one of you! I got to choose our review items {we have another coming soon}, this set appealed to me for many reasons. Mostly I loved that all 3 of my kids would love it. We have played with it a LOT since it arrived, but one day we had an outside play session and I grabbed these pictures!
This set includes 90 sticks in 3 sizes (2¼”, 3½”, 5¼”), 32 curves, and 48 connectors (approximately 1″ in diameter). Below are samples of each item…
They have all had fun creating things.

The Geometric Shape Building Set comes with a definite recommendation from me and from all 3 of my kids {I asked them}. They all love building toys and will play and build for hours. There are enough pieces to build all sorts of items as an open ended free play toy. You can also use this set for math instruction, showing 2D and 3D shapes, like those shown below and more!
Learning Resources has a similar set called, Dive into Shapes! A “Sea” and Build Geometry Set which we also have. It comes with less pieces but has instruction cards. We love both sets. If you are looking at these sets, be sure to look at both to see which would be a better fit for your family or class. Dive into Shapes is on Learning Resources here and on Amazon here.
You can purchase the Geometric Shape Building Set on Amazon here, and also directly on the Learning Resources website.
