It allows her to look at the vertices sides and really be able to feel and imagine them being see-through also helps her to understand how they’re drawn in books. Would definitely recommend these to anyone whose children are struggling with three dimensional shapes. Review: Fantastic price and customer service. - Loved these, 5 yr old was able to learn 2D/3D concept in minutes thanks to these as visual aids. So much fun and the colours are so bright and appealing. These came beautifully packed and arrived in one piece ! ## Features - Warning:Not suitable for children under 36 months - Warning:Toy inside.

The shapes are solid. The base of each shape can be removed and in the centre of each base is a small removable disc. You can fill them with water, sand etc., to compare volume and discuss capacity. Hope this helps? Incidentally this is a really good product, just watch out for the pyramids as the tips are extremely sharp - I used a nail file to smooth them down. **Q: Do you need to keep the small circular pieces?** A: I guess you don't have to but you would need to maybe if you were filling them with something, e.g. rice. I've kept them with the shapes. **Q: How big are these, approximately?** A: They are a good size for small hands. Adult could hold 2 or 3 in open hand. Very sturdy too. **Q: Does this come with a sheet with names on?** A: Yes it does, it comes with a leaflet which explains all the shapes . Brilliant visual learning aid. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really good resource *by H***E on 21 February 2025* My daughter has found getting her head around three-dimensional shapes difficult but these are absolutely spot-on. It allows her to look at the vertices sides and really be able to feel and imagine them being see-through also helps her to understand how they’re drawn in books. Would definitely recommend these to anyone whose children are struggling with three dimensional shapes. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic price and customer service. *by S***J on 27 July 2020* Loved these, 5 yr old was able to learn 2D/3D concept in minutes thanks to these as visual aids. So much fun and the colours are so bright and appealing. These came beautifully packed and arrived in one piece ! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great learning tools *by J***K on 7 January 2024* Both kids, 3 and 7 loves them and it would be 5 stars if bottoms would not be removable. That's massive miss if you ask me. Bottom can easily fall off and then you end up with shape that could be easier to break. I understand you can fill them up, but personally I would prefer them to sealed. I did it myself with glue and this will hopefully work better. ## Frequently Bought Together - Learning Resources View-Thru Geometric Solids - Geometric Shapes, Back to School Supplies Must Haves, Math Teacher Supplies - Learning Resources Cuisenaire Rods Small Group Set: 155 Piece Wood Set - Learning Resources MathLink Cubes - Set of 100 Cubes, Ages 5+ Kindergarten, STEM Activities, Math Manipulatives, Homeschool Supplies, Teacher Supplies --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/48272112-view-thru-geometric-shapes-ages-8-12-geometry-set](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/48272112-view-thru-geometric-shapes-ages-8-12-geometry-set) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-09-19*
