Our brightly coloured, Solid Magnetic Polydron was awarded 3 Stars in the Creative Play category.

During the testing process, the judges described our resource as "A good starting off point for children to learn about 3 dimensional shapes and their properties. It is also a great tool for role playing and building imagination as children are able to adapt and create their own ideas."
