The Trido Magnetic Art Flamingo Small set is the perfect introduction to Trido’s award-winning world of 3D magnetic building. Twelve solid geometric shapes, including two octahedrons, four tetrahedrons, four half-tetrahedrons and two magnetic eyes, connect on every side to make tiny sculptures, quirky creatures and characters full of personality. Compact enough to slip into a bag and beautiful enough to sit on a desk, it’s a thoughtful gift for ages 3 and up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Ideal First Trido Set\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eWith just 12 pieces, the Small set is a great way to learn how Trido works. Kids discover how tetrahedrons and octahedrons fit together, how half-tetrahedrons change an angle, and how moving one shape can transform a whole creation. Once they’ve mastered the basics, they’re ready to add more Trido sets and build bigger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShapes from Ancient Greece\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eTrido’s pieces are based on the Platonic solids, the five perfectly regular 3D shapes studied in ancient Greece. Trido uses two of them: the tetrahedron, with four faces, and the octahedron, with eight. Handling these shapes gives children an intuitive feel for geometry, symmetry and spatial relationships, long before they meet them in a maths class.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConnects on Every Face\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eTrido’s patented magnetic system means every side of every shape connects to another, with no repelling and no wrong way round. Strong magnets keep small builds steady, so even young children can create with confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTwo Eyes, Endless Characters\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eAdd the magnetic eyes and any shape becomes a character: a bird, a fish, a little monster or something completely new.
