Tiko Balls

Balls we made from two different Tiko sets. Tiko manuals don’t have these models, and they are good optionsfor the builders who don’t have some pieces.

Pythagoras, Tiko, and Tako are vintage building sets. They have big panels of different colors and shapes, that connect by the edges. Each piece has sockets and balls that can snap together, connecting the pieces. You can also connect the pieces of different shapes, as long as their sides match. This connection is strong enough to hold even the biggest structures together.

Because of the sockets’ form, Pythagoras and Tiko panels can form both flat surfaces and 3D shapes. The flexible joint connection means that you can connect the pieces at different angles. The bigger panels are huge – they are a few inches long, so kids can create toy hats or items to hold, and not just toys. They are sturdy enough to wear and to play with. There also are smaller pieces that can help connect the bigger pannels together or make smaller crafts. The pieces of this set have all kinds of shapes – there are different triangles, rectangles, squares, pentagons, and so on, all in different colors.

Sadly, Amazon seemingly has no sets exactly like Tiko and Pythagoras, but some very similar concepts also are interesting enough.

Knight In Tiko Armor

Anny (6 years old) was a knight for a day and actively made and tried on Tiko armor. The green square on the sword is an emerald. The chain mail is attached to Anny’s neck and belt. The shield has a handle on the back side to make it easier to hold.

Tiko Mountain Fortress

A magic Tiko fortress on the mountain (real one we visited). For the purpose of the game, however, the boulders in the background acted like mountains.

Tiko Ship

And this ship swam around the mountain river to its heart’s content – the children had fun with it all day long. I must admit to the quality of Tiko – the stones did not cause any damage to the parts of the ship, only scratched them a little. Unfortunately, the ship sank more than once, but still managed to sail a couple of tens of meters.

Arisha made this boat from Tiko all by herself, the idea and construction are all hers.

Tiko Hammer And Sicle

Some other Tiko toys we made – with a sudden political turn 🙂 Like all big Tiko toy items, these sicle and hammer are as big as the real ones and you can actually hold them.

Tiko Traffic Lights

The forest is probably the best place for these traffic lights – sadly, Tiko panels can’t change colors…

Small Tiko House

Another outdoors Tiko model – a house, probably for the gnomes.

Tiko Turtle

Another craft – a turtle – we made from Tiko while exploring outdoors. Its head is amazing, it connects to the openings in the big green panels. Few building sets offer something like that.

Tiko Star

We made this star with identical Tiko pieces – long and thing triangles. The only pity is that it’s hard to hang somewhere, you have to just let it lay around.
