CONNECTIX 120 Piece Pastel Creative Pack

£115

Designed to put your little ones’ imaginations to the test, CONNECTIX has launched their new pastel creative pack which features a range of shapes and beautiful pastel colours across its 120 pieces. The pieces in the set are now in a new pastel colourway which perfectly captures the light and makes your child’s creations just that extra bit more colourful.

When I first got the CONNECTIX 120 Piece Pastel Creative Pack I was shocked by its weight, as packed inside are so many beautiful and sturdy pieces perfect for building constructions both big and small. Each shape is magnetised to fit perfectly with the other shapes, whilst not compromising the aesthetics of each piece.

In the 120-piece pastel pack, there are 8 large squares, 48 small squares, 16 equilateral triangles, 16 right-angle triangles, 16 isosceles triangles, 8 window square pieces, 8 hollow square pieces, and an ideas booklet. The isosceles triangle is new to the pastel set but is compatible with all traditional CONNECTIX isosceles triangles. This is one of the main perks of CONNECTIX ranges; all pieces are compatible with other ranges, as well as many of the leading brands in the industry. Therefore, by buying from CONNECTIX you are just building up your children's collection and giving them even greater building potential as they continue to grow!

The aim of CONNECTIX is to provide the building tools for your child’s imagination, as through building they are developing their creativity whilst actively developing their fine motor skills. Then as they continue to build larger constructions it becomes a challenge of endurance and resilience to make these constructions stable. Therefore, with the CONNECTIX set you are providing your child with an educational tool, which is based on STEM, to develop their learning in a fun and imaginative way.

I was most impressed with the quality of the pieces; each one is bevelled and provides a pretty transparent centre for light to pass through the pastel shapes. When built into a range of things, the new pastel range looks great and feels sturdy. As a parent, you can feel confident giving this range to your children to bring educational development, whilst knowing they’re made from non-toxic ABS Plastic, and are BPA and phthalate-free. Each piece has also been sealed and riveted for extra safety.

Overall, to expand your child’s creativity and give them a building set that is both educational and looks great, the CONNECTIX 120 Piece Pastel Creative Pack is a great choice for gifting this festive season.
