The MandaLay Rainbow set includes 102 colourful pieces for creating and arranging mandalas, along with a 40 x 40 cm play mat featuring a fine grid for precise positioning. This versatile set encourages children to engage in a variety of activities such as sorting, counting, stacking, and arranging in order. The bright, vibrant colours and diverse shapes inspire creativity and artistic expression. Perfect for children aged 4 and above, the MandaLay Rainbow set helps develop fine motor skills, spatial awareness, and an appreciation for symmetry while promoting imaginative free play.

Benefits for Educational Use:
The MandaLay Rainbow set is a valuable educational tool that fosters creativity, problem-solving, and mathematical skills. It helps children develop fine motor coordination through positioning and stacking while enhancing cognitive abilities such as pattern recognition and sequencing. The grid design on the play mat encourages children to create balanced, symmetrical designs, making it a great way to explore geometry and design principles. The open-ended nature of the activity supports both individual and group learning, making it perfect for collaborative projects.

Classroom Ideas:

  • Mandalas and Geometry: Use the set to explore basic geometric shapes and symmetry by guiding students to create their own mandala designs, teaching them the importance of balance in art.
  • Colour Sorting and Counting: Incorporate counting activities by having students sort and group the pieces by colour or shape, helping them develop organisational and early maths skills.
  • Creative Expression: Allow students to create unique mandalas that reflect their individual artistic vision, encouraging self-expression and creativity.
  • Collaborative Projects: Set up a group activity where students work together to build large mandala patterns, fostering teamwork and communication skills.
