# Back to ChooChooLoops # Our youngest beta-tester explores:   ChooChooLoops#o


# At Daniel's and his mom's request for something like train tracks, we designed a brand new set of curvy puzzle pieces (polybends), released in August 2009. Until then, we engaged Daniel for some hands-on beta testing, and mommy came up with seriously good solutions of her own.

December 2008:   Daniel at 21 months was exploring his jumbo set of ChooChooLoops while we still had it in development. He even recognized some pieces as letters. His favorites are the ones he called S, C and O.

Free-form symmetry

This handsome symmetrical free-form pattern was contributed by Daniel's mom. There's a whole new world of possibilities...


October 2009:   Building free-form and tracing the tracks. Mom reports: "A fun new idea we are investigating are mazes/labyrinths, so we spent time setting up continuous loops and having Daniel trace them with his finger. We compare lengths of loops and try to connect the same colors to follow paths (off board). Fun!"

Free-form track loops

With some help, even the longer squiggles can fit...
