Do you know TANGRAM?
It's a set of 7 figures which are a basis for making different pictures.
It's an Eastern variant of a puzzle game that has become very popular.
I like handmade toys, so I tried to make tangram by myself.
At first, I found a scheme in the web.
I took a piece of thick paper and scissors to make it.
Then I cut them all.
It must be only 7 pieces but the fantasy can create Hundreds of figures from them!
It's very useful for kids hands skills and especially for fantasy and creativity!
TANGRAM of 7 elements is universal, but if it's too complicated for a small kid, you can add some details to help his understanding.
My boy is in love with my idea;)
So kids definitely like such toys.
Smart toys are not always expensive, are not always in trend, but they can really be a great way for your baby's development.
