The Design
About Bavvic Byggeklodser
Bavvic er et sæt kreative byggeklodser til børn. Træklodserne er fremstillet af lokalt bøgetræ, der er tilovers fra møbel- og vinduesproduktion. Sensoriske silikoneforbindelser sammenkobler klodserne og gør det muligt at bygge abstrakte former. Hver klods måler 80 gange 80 gange 7,9 millimeter, og hver forbindelse måler 40 gange 40 gange 8,4 millimeter. Det åbne design understøtter kognitive og motoriske færdigheder, rumlig forestillingsevne, problemløsning, beslutningstagning og kreativ tænkning. Bavvic har til formål at fremme læring gennem praktisk leg for alle aldre.
