Fun toy to introduce a three year old to the concepts of electronics.

Description

Stacklight is an educational toy for kids to introduce electronics in the appealing hands-on way.

The goal of the game is to introduce electronics through big objects, colors and shapes. We want to encourage kids to recognize patterns, organize and play by stacking the objects.

User age: ~3 year old.

How does Stacklight work? Each of the Stacklight pieces light up as the kids stack them.
