Our New toy PlayShapes Launches

We are very proud to announce the launch of our new wooden toy at Tent London 2009.

PlayShapes is a modular set of 74 geometric wooden shapes which can be endlessly arranged or stacked to produce hundreds of 3D creations. The smooth shapes, with flashes of colour are pleasingly crafted in rubberwood which can also be used as drawing templates. The intrinsic simplicity of the product and clarity of design, freely allows children and adults alike to fully engage in the wonderment and joy of the creative process.

The set of shapes come in a box along with a printed, unbleached cotton drawstring bag and a set of illustrations. Box size L 21cm x W 19cm x H 15cm Weight 3kgs

We got Gold

We are very proud to have received a gold award for ShapeMaker with a score from the judges of 94% at the 2009 Practical Pre-School awards, This is our first industry toy award.

The awards are tested by professionals in the childcare sector and children themselves across several categories. What the testers said: "Children Loved this product, with the young ones making pictures from the patterned blocks and the older ones timing each other to see who was fastest. There were lots of different pictures to create, which really tested the children's thought processes as they had to get specific bricks for each picture. It promoted good team work and sharing skills, with the children taking it in turns to find pieces and choose pictures to put together. An all round great product."
