If writing down all the sizes of toys it might be fun to make a graph to see what the average toy size is. As it’s autumn we can create a graphs of different types of leaves or leaf colour using blocks to count them and place above. This adds an extra dimension for older children and gets them to think a little more about how the pattern should be completed. Again there are cards showing different random combinations of cubes and the child can build their own to match. It’s a good idea to go through the cards within the kit first and then add on to these with further ideas that interest the children.We’ve talked a little about what DNA is and eldest loves to connect it together at Glasgow Science Centre.

Some of our partners may process your data as a part of their legitimate business interest without asking for consent. We’ve had great fun using Mathlink Cubes for learning different ideas and even just for play as cakes and sprinkles!

There are a few cards with patterns to copy in the pack, but you can also take this further with creating your own patterns. I’ve given my children a stick of blocks with one pattern and then they can either copy or add more to the end of the cubes.
