Trido Magnetic Art Sky – Large 36 Pieces
Trido takes a fresh approach to magnetic building. Instead of flat tiles or bricks, kids build with solid 3D geometric shapes inspired by the geometry of ancient Greece. The Sky Large set includes 36 pieces in calm sky-blue tones: octahedrons, tetrahedrons, half-tetrahedrons and magnetic eyes. Every face of every shape connects, so children can build sculptures, objects and quirky characters in endless combinations. Move just one piece and a bird becomes a robot, or a tower becomes a creature. It’s open-ended, artistic building that grows with your child from age 3.
Building Blocks Based on Platonic Solids
Trido’s shapes are based on the Platonic solids, the only five convex regular polyhedrons. The set uses two of them: the tetrahedron, with four faces, and the octahedron, with eight. Half-tetrahedrons add even more ways to angle and balance a build. As kids play, they get a hands-on feel for 3D geometry, symmetry and how shapes fit together, which lays early foundations for maths and spatial reasoning.
Every Side Connects
Trido’s magnetic system lets every side of every shape connect to another. Multiple strong magnets in each piece hold builds firmly in place. This means less frustration for little hands and more freedom to build up, out and at unexpected angles. The magnets are sealed safely inside durable ABS plastic.
Turn Any Build into a Character
The six magnetic eyes are where the magic happens. Pop a pair onto any construction and it instantly becomes a character with its own personality. Kids can create animals, monsters, robots and friends, then invent stories for them and keep inventing as they rebuild.
Learning Through Creative Play
Open-ended building supports creativity, problem-solving and fine motor skills, and it builds visual-spatial intelligence as children plan, test and adjust their designs. It’s equally at home as a solo activity, a shared family build or a calm, hands-on activity in the classroom. For extra inspiration, the Trido Art Book is full of objects and characters to recreate.
What’s Included
Product Details
What age is Trido Magnetic Art suitable for?
Trido is suitable for children aged 3 and up. Younger children enjoy stacking and connecting the shapes, while older kids and adults can create complex sculptures and characters.
How is Trido different from other magnetic building toys?
Most magnetic sets use flat tiles. Trido uses solid 3D tetrahedrons and octahedrons, and every side of every shape connects. This makes it easier to build at angles and create sculptural, artistic designs.
Are the magnets safe?
Yes. The magnets are sealed inside each piece, which is made from durable ABS plastic.
What are Platonic solids?
Platonic solids are the five convex regular polyhedrons, shapes whose faces are all identical regular polygons. Trido uses two of them: the tetrahedron (four faces) and the octahedron (eight faces).
What can you build with the Trido Sky Large set?
Anything kids can imagine: animals, birds, robots, buildings, abstract sculptures and characters. Adding the magnetic eyes turns any construction into a character.
Is Trido good for learning?
Yes. Building with 3D geometric shapes develops spatial reasoning, early geometry concepts, problem-solving and fine motor skills, all through creative, open-ended play.
