✨ Member Review: Experimenting with Clicformers and Magformers
“My son, aged 10, enjoys fiddling with magnetic tiles while reading or watching videos, using them somewhat as a fidget toy. This leads to the creation of aesthetically pleasing geometric shapes in 2D or 3D (which also sneakily reinforces the concepts of 2D nets folding into 3D shapes).
Naturally, this eventually leads to making wearable creations or handy containers to store errant pieces.
But borrowing two sets of similar building toys poses the question: can we make the same shapes with the two sets? How are they different? Why can we do certain things with one set but not with the other? How many more pieces, and what type of pieces, does one set need to have in order to create the same structure?
Then we moved on to the experimentation phase: which structure breaks apart first when dropped from a height, and how high does that need to be? (not that I’m advocating throwing toys around!)
I wonder what questions you will find yourselves asking when you borrow these toys!”
