| "DRAGONS & REPTILES" Description:
Slither and roar your way to creative fun!
Create unlimited numbers of creeping creatures, slithery snakes, stalking crocodiles, and dragons...or creatures from your own imagination!
This construction toy is made of high-density foam designed in unique and colorful shapes linked with specialized plastic connectors that allow children to link, stack, and rotate the pieces to create their own 3-D creatures.
DRAGONS & REPTILES allows for the creation of truly interesting creatures ranging from original three headed dragons to friendly snakes and crocodiles. The highly colorful pieces allow both cartoon-like creatures and ferocious dragons!
There is great flexibility for ages and abilities. You can build easy models like snakes, or stack the pieces into more complex creatures, creating fantastic 3D creatures like dragons! There are illustrated designs to follow, or you can let your imagination take charge!
Pieces from different Bloco models can be combined to create "cross species" such as a T-Rex-dragon.
Includes 235 building pieces.
Product Notes:
Please note that there may not be enough pieces to make all of the animals in the instructions at the same time. Your child may need to use pieces from previous animals they have built in order to make the next one.

Product Warnings & Safety Information:
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD - SMALL PARTS. This kit contains small pieces and is not suitable for children under 3 years of age.
A NOTE FROM LAURI:
Completely visual instructions allows younger kids to independently build these models. This toy is a great opportunity for kids to figure out how to build these fun animals on their own. Yes, you will likely need to help them with their first project or two, but once they understand how to follow the visual picture instructions, they can start to build more and more independently.
The foam and connectors are very tactile. The foam has a very pleasurable, soft-but-firm feel for tactile kids.
This unique building set combines creativity, building, and puzzling fun for younger kids. I love how these Bloco kits blend creativity, tactile building, and thinking skills. They are really 3D puzzles as kids figure out how to stack the pieces to make the creatures look the way they want. Once they get the hang of how the foam and connectors work, they can use creativity to build their very own unique creatures! |
