Tell me, and I will forget.
Show me, and I may remember.
Involve me, and I will understand.

This Chinese proverb encapsulates the philosophy of Matador.

Matador is a construction set with wooden blocks that can be connected via pins.  The idea was generated over 100 years ago when a father watched his children getting frustrated while playing with wooden blocks; any complex structure they tried to build simply collapsed.  Being an engineer, he designed a toy wooden construction set made of blocks that could be connected with wooden pins.  The idea took off and has delighted many generations of children.  The possibilities are almost limitless and while each set comes with its own building instructions, Matador will also encourage your child to put together their own ideas.

Active involvement is the educational key, while developing fine motor skills, 3-dimensional imagination, concentration and understanding of technical concepts.

The Matador-Ki range is designed for the 3 to 5-year olds. The larger 4x4 cm blocks have rounded edges and corners and are perfectly suited to their little hands.

Each set has its own assortment of tools: a wooden hammer for assembling the parts and pliers and a wedge to take them apart again. Once the child has constructed her model, she will want to play with it for a while and show it to her friends. At any time she can take her model apart and build another one.

This set contains 263 parts, including building instructions and tools.
