Toy Concept #1

A 3D foam toy

The toy shown above is a foam 3D puzzle that can form cubes, rectangles, and any other shape a child can come up with. There are also pieces that are triangles so that a child has the ability to mix and match pieces.

Any child could use this, it can be by the youngest toddler as a chew toy up to an adult who wants to be stimulated. However, its main purpose is to build 3 dimensional objects using the puzzle pieces.
The principle that is taught is basic problem solving and stimulating the imagination because of the variation of geometry of the pieces.
The toy is very safe and durable due to the material that is used to make it. Also, the cost of construction would not be large because the pieces can be produced in mass quantities.
