Building Blocks

A toy bin tipped onto the classroom rug: bricks that snap around the photos.

Building Blocks tips a toy bin onto the classroom rug: red, yellow, blue and green bricks snap around every photo. The contents page is a Parts List, the mascot gets an instruction card, and Kindergarten lines up like a collectible figure series. Science Fair and Maker Day are numbered like build steps, the year becomes a Build-a-Year Tower, and All About Me asks what your head is full of and what powers you.
