Description
How are houses designed? What shapes do you see in buildings? Our engaging building center teaches kids to look closer at real-life designs—and make original homes that use the same important elements! Created to encourage open-ended building with minimal teacher involvement, our center includes 8 photo cards showing actual buildings, plus tons of hands-on manipulatives that invite children to build, explore and engineer—again and again! For easy reference, the back of each photo card explains  key elements for each design—so it’s easy to guide children’s learning. You get 130 geometric, interlocking plastic pieces and 8 photo cards. Longest building piece measures 4".
