As part of my interactive Mathmagics show, I was looking for something new for the younger pupils for whom numeracy tricks and stories would be too advanced and who are often unable to enjoy visits from those working with the older pupils. I wanted to be able to provide sessions for everyone, irrespective of their experience and abilities.
We were incredibly excited at Slindon Church of England Primary School to receive a Polydron Vehicle Construction set for inclusion at our first annual summer festival, Slindfest.
Portland Public School kindergarten teacher Nicki Eybel recently sent us a great question:
We are excited to announce that we have now started to make our favourite ranges in wood!
It has become increasingly essential for young children to explore their external outdoor environment during the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). Indeed, it is now a requirement for all children to have access to an outdoor play area or to take part in outdoor activities unless circumstances such as the weather prevent it.
Giant Polydron exists in a very competitive field within the early years education field, and of course there are many good and worthy competitors out there. So why would you choose this product as opposed to some of the others?
I first discovered Polydron at my primary school, they said it was a fun and educational toy for kids to play with, they were right! It's really fun, you can make whatever you want! It teaches kids how to be creative by making things.
