3-D Blocks

We used blocks that are designed to be used on a light table. They were made of brittle plastic that, when they fell down, made a loud noise on the Formica table. 

So we used a table cloth to soften the fall.

After the small group of children had played with the blocks they sorted them into different types. This led them to create more 3-D creations, putting blocks together in color groups or types.
