The Fun Toy for Kids Many of the construction toys available today use magnets to stick together. That’s pretty cool, but unfortunately the weight of the parts restrict building any large or mobile structures. Other construction kits only let you build out a couple of different directions and are not very well constructed. But with Zome the objects kids can build are limitless!
Zome uses precisely constructed pieces that fit together perfectly and offers the ability for kids to expand their objects in up to 61 different dimensions! When completed a Zome built object can be picked up, turned around, and examined from any angle. Kids love getting their hands on things!
The Educational Toy for Kids Zome is the most versatile and most fun construction toy ever built, but there's much more to the story. Zome is based on actual mathematical principles of nature. Its construction allows the modeling of geometric shapes, molecular structures, quasicrystals, and more. Yes, Zome is fun AND educational, at the same time. And we back that promise with an unconditional money back guarantee!
The Learning Aid for Teachers Zome is used in over 6,000 schools and institutions across the US and in numerous schools and universities across the globe. It is used in grades one through the university level to help teach algebra, scale, number sense, symmetry, proportion, geometry, DNA structure, trigonometry, and more.
The Research Tool for Scientist Because Zome replicates so many natural structures and can build so many different geometric designs, it is of great value for many professionals. Mathematicians use Zome to model everything from networks in discrete mathematics, to group theory, and projection models (shadows) of theoretical 4-dimensional objects. Crystallographers, chemists and material scientists build lattices of natural crystals and quasi-crystalline materials, Buckyballs and other Fullerenes, and models of chromosome bonds and protein molecules. Engineers and computer scientists design space frames, make visual models of data bases, and numerous other uses.
