Dado combines art and science as kids of all ages explore architectural principles...proportion, balance, structure and color. A new twist on classic building blocks, Dado engages the imagination as the slits on each cube are interlocked to create an unlimited number of three-dimensional structures. Constructed horizontally, vertically or nested together, Dado invites visual spatial development and problem solving through design-centered, attention-grabbing fun!
The Expert says: "Dado helps children improve fine motor skills, including hand strength, finger dexterity and coordination of small muscle movements. With mastery of the movements required to fit the cubes together, children take obvious pride in their creative constructions. Psychologically, children develop skills as they share ideas and talk about their play goal.".
