- Alternate the color and black-and-white facade graphics to customize your creations—no glue or fasteners needed, just slot into place!
The vibrant cutouts increase spatial visualization skills while giving future architects first-hand experience with color, form, and pattern.

nbsp;Any kid, who loves to build, create, and use their skills as well as their imagination, is going to enjoy this clever book immensely.
At around 4-5 inches by 4-5 inches this is a small, square, sturdy, and thick book...but it is by no means a board book for young readers. This is a construction set within a book, offering not hours of reading but tons of building fun. The idea behind the book is to give children a chance to discover the small architect inside of them. Each page holds one or more construction pieces (95 in all), which can be slid into each other according to desire or design. The pieces are sturdy and will hold up to being used time and again. There's also an instruction booklet in the first pages, which gives an illustration of various 'buildings' which can be built and directions on how to construct them. They are easy to understand and follow.
