This is one of those items that's being promoted as an adult toy...this particular one as a "creativity tool." But doesn't it just scream KIDS to you?
The Ball of Whacks consists of 30 magnetic design blocks that can be rearranged into many shapes, designs, animals--you name it! More versatile than a puzzle and lots more fun than a brain teaser. The Ball of Whacks comes with a 96-page illustrated creativity guidebook that provides you with tips, stories, exercises, and insights into the creative process.
Each individual piece of the Ball of Whacks is a "golden ratio" rhombic pyramid. Held in place by 180 rare earth magnets, these design blocks fit together to form a perfect 30-sided rhombic triacontahedron — geometry's most beautiful shape.
Because of the large number of strong magnets (think, "Polly Pocket recall"), this is recommended for for ages 8 and up . What a great birthday present!
