Magnetic Geometry Made Fun

Warning!  WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.

Creativity tool or just plain geometric fun? Yes. From the ever-fertile mind of creativity guru Roger von Oech come the Ball of Whacks® and the X-Ball®, perfect for anyone with a 3-dimensional mind, from a precocious child to a bored nonagenarian, including your favorite artist, mathematician, designer, engineer, or whatever. The little red Ball of Whacks, 3-1/4" dia, comprises (30) magnetized right golden rhombic pyramids that will fit together in endless shapes, from a rhombic triacontahedron, to stars, wreaths, animals, sunbursts, and more. The X-Ball is a collection of (30) convex magnetic Xs which will grab onto each other to make nearly endless geometric forms, including a skeletal icosodecahedron. Combine the Xs with the Ball of Whacks’ pyramids to create even more permutations. Each comes with a 96pp booklet of creativity exercises. Plenty of desktop noodling fun, but a lot more than just a toy.
