MAKE 'N' BREAK
Skills: Spatial Awareness Hand/Eye Co-ordination Visual Perception Fine Motor skills
Just How Quickly Can Your Hand And Your Eye Work Together? A sensational set of challenges and a wonderful game for the whole family! Against the clock, each player in turn has to use the ten giant wooden bricks to recreate what is on the card in front of them ... except that it isn't quite that simple - for the harder challenges, you'll really need to think about the order in which the bricks should be placed. There are 80 challenges in all. When we tested it, Make 'n' Break was deemed to be one of the most fun games that we had ever come across - hugely entertaining for a wide age range and thoroughly useful in developing visual perception and hand/eye co-ordination skills.

Find the plastic shapes pictured on the cards, from the bag, just by feeling with your fingers, and be the first to collect an agreed amount of cards. Each player has a different coloured bag with shapes inside. The top card is turned over, and all players feel inside their bag to try and find the shape pictured on the card. Whoever finds it first, wins the card. Some of the pieces are very similar - so you'll need to be alert to size as well as shape!

The easiest of all sets
These wonderful foam cube kits have won many major awards. Each set comes with six coloured puzzles, flat-packed. They need to be turned into six cubes, each one a little harder than the previous. Once they have been made, the next stage is to fit them all back into their flat packs, which is easier said than done! Multiple shapes can then be made out of pieces from each cube. Enormous fun for hours ... and don't think they're just for children - adults get addicted fast! There are four graded packs of six cubes to choose from.
