ImagAbility Wedgits Design Cards

I do enrichment math with 2nd graders and these are perfect. The kids choose what level they want to work with - A through D in (mostly) ascending level of difficulty. I shuffle the cards, have them close their eyes, and pick. They usually start with the design cards, then move on to improvising on their own. Having the cards has really added to the fantastic wedgit experience. The kids love it.

I have a 4 and 6 year old and they both love to use the cards with varying levels of difficulties. Perfect for a range of ages. We don't use the black and white side of the card, but the color side is easy to follow.

I suppose as kids get older they use these a little more. Good idea but I need to buy more blocks to use and be sure I have the right colors and shapes. Adds up $$$$$$ Kids love to play with Wedgits and build.

They are interesting and are as advertised but the kids ignore them. Very expensive for what they are.

Card box was ripped!

These cards challenge you to build different designs with Wedgits (you need to buy the Wedgit blocks separately). Wedgits are rhombus shaped building blocks - amazing building possibilities! These are not your grandmother's blocks. You will need at least 2 sets of Wedgits to build the designs on the cards. Challenge yourself and your children with the Wedgit cards - enjoy!

Liked that the cards showed designs in increasing steps of difficulty; however, it was difficult to see some of the design details on the sides or back, especially on the advanced designs. My grandson was engaged immediately with the cards and started building the designs starting from simple to advanced. He liked the challenge of trying to replicate the more complicated designs even though he was also frustrated when he couldn't see more details of the designs which were hidden within the design or in the side or back. I punched holes in the corners of the cards and put them on a ring to keep them together in order if difficulty.

These are good to extend thinking or use in a classroom. With the cards, students are strengthening their visual and manipulative skills. I strongly believe in free play but the cards have a place too.
