    Default Dominos

    With two grandkids of young years I started 2 sets of dominos about 2 years ago, unfortunately renovations got in the way but now they have finished I finally got around to finishing domino's. Nothing exciting just made from pine, red cedar used for the red patterns and some pale timber dyed for the red and blue.

    More educational than anything. 21 in each set. 150mm x 70mm x 25mm

    Cheers
    Graham

    Been thinking a lot about these Graham.

    Thinking of using machinery stickers you get from Reject Shop to make up a set for 3 Year old Grandson (nearly 4)

    These dominos are tremendous

    What a great idea like the use of shapes and colours instead of dots

    Cheers guys, I would love to say they are my own ideas but got the project from a book 'Making toys that teach'

    At one point I was looking at pics of family members but went for the easier option.
