Combining imagination, dexterity and perseverance, EQUILIBRIO is a fun-filled brain teaser for the whole family to enjoy!
While it is great fun to build from the pictures, kids can also have lots of fun with creative free form play with the precision blocks. What a great way to encourage imaginative building, too!

A NOTE FROM LAURI:
Complex matching game & puzzle. Kids are matching from a 2D picture and figuring out how to build a 3D structure. This is a more complex activity than most matching games, and great for kids that need more challenge. Building each picture in the book is really figuring out puzzles of increasing difficulty. Kids feel real satisfaction when the puzzles are figured out!
High quality book and building pieces. This game version includes the spiral EQUILIBRIO book and building pieces. The spiral book is sturdy and excellent quality, and includes the introductory instructions and 60 illustrations at 6 progressive levels of difficulty. The book is great because you can easily lay it flat or have it stand vertically on the table, depending on your preference! For each illustration, you are shown which pieces you should use and how many. The solutions are in the back of the book if you need to check your solution!
Great for younger boys and girls! EQUILIBRIO is designed for boys and girls equally. The puzzles are more spread out and there are more puzzles that use all the building pieces than in the other puzzle books (TANGRAMINO and ARCHITECTO) It is easier for younger children to match the illustration with the building pieces.
Visual spatial learners will love it. Each EQUILIBRIO puzzle is completely visual - you see the picture to build and a picture of what pieces and how many you should use. Since the majority of the population are visual spatial learners, this is a product that is great for all kids, and especially great for kids who need activities that are not dependent upon language.
A great investment to build upon. An additional nice feature is that this game is part of a family of products. Once you have the building blocks, you can purchase additional books (ARCHITECTO BOOK, TANGRAMINO BOOK, CLICKO BOOK) for a whole new set of additional puzzles to use with the same building blocks. ARCHITECTO tends to appeal to boys, TANGRAMINO tends to appeal to girls, EQUILIBRIO appeals to both and are somewhat easier puzzles to build, and CLICKO is the advanced version with puzzles of greater difficulty.
And best of all - EQUILIBRIO puzzles are INTERESTING and FUN!
