Product Description Meet our innovative range of toys made from bamboo, the fastest growing plant in the world! Bamboo is also clever because it renews itself in a natural way, over and over again. By the time you have this toy in your hand, the bamboo used to make it has already grown back. Children learn through hands-on play. The new Flexistix range from Hape encourages building, constructive problem-solving, and imaginative thinking. Build a variety of shapes and structures with this fun Creativity Kit! The bamboo sticks and flexible silicone connectors can be arranged to make ten separate projects, not including the ones your child designs themselves!
