Goobi Magnetic Construction Set

Descripción

Goobi will fire your children's creativity while developing their manual dexterity and problem solving skills. They'll also learn some basic principles of geometry, physics, architecture, and engineering. Wow, your kids might not even have to go to college. Just give them a year or two at Goobi U. instead! This fun set includes 61 multi-colored pieces and illustrated guidebook. (We especially liked the examples of body jewelry you can make.) The set is composed of 1.7 inch plastic bars with strong neodymium magnets implanted in each end, nickel coated iron spheres, and plastic tripods (interlocking pieces) for 90-degree connections. These tripods allow the builder to create rigid cubical structures, adding tremendous stability to the creations, and exponentially increasing the design possibilities. Creative Child magazine awarded Goobi the 2006 Seal of Excellence in the Builder/Construction Toys category and the 2007 Top Toy of the Year award. But children aren't the only ones who think Goobi is groovy. It's great in the cubicle or office as a stress reducer for us working stiffs. Moreover, it can be helpful in the rehabilitation of elderly people with motor skill problems. This Beginner Pack is designed for making small-scale structures. Buy two sets and double the creative possibilities. Your child just might earn the nickname Super Goob! And, um, who wouldn't want that? Ages 5 and up.
