A set of 7 basic geometric shapes that are about 1.75 x 1.75" (4.5 x 4.5 cm). These manipulatives are a perfect learning aid for teaching young children or toddlers shape recognition, or for math applications.
Included Shapes:
- Square
- Rectangle
- Triangle
- Circle
- Oval
- Rhombus (Diamond)
- 5-Point Star
These shapes fit comfortably in hand and they have a pleasant weight. They are laser cut from 1/8" (3 mm) thick 3-ply birch plywood.
The shapes are suitable for use in their unfinished state but may also be finished. They come pre-sanded. They may be painted, stained, and/or varnished without trouble.
When cutting wood with a laser, wooden edges are noticeably darker than the top and bottom. The darkening is fairly uniform and some people prefer the contrast. The edges may be finished without sanding. However, if you do not like the darker edges, they may be removed by sanding.
