Color and shape show the way
The relationships inherent in the components of Zome System make it possible for children as young as 6 years old to intuitively explore different shapes and patterns.
Fixed joints allow construction of complex shapes, because the necessary angles are built into each node. Blue struts fit into rectangular holes; yellow struts into triangular holes, and red struts into pentagonal holes.
Because the necessary angles are built into each node, Buckyballs, DNA, quasicrystals, viruses and other natural shapes almost build themselves. Children also use Zome System to make towers, dinosaurs, helicopters, and crystal patterns.
For ages 6 to adult. Swallowing danger. Not for children under 3 years of age.
