Tiko Tent City

A Tiko camp or a tent city we made while camped ourselves. The thing in the centre is a campfire.

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.

Big Tiko Ball

We do this Tiko ball often. It’s big, but it’s difficult to play with – it’s fragile. It looks like a bathyscaphe and consists of large pentagons and large triangles.

Tiko 30 Diamonds Ball

The children were hooked by the description of a ball made of 30 Tiko diamonds and we made it! The ball endured serious tests – it was kicked, it was used to play football and a hand ball. It was tested in water – children let it down a mountain stream. I must say that the ball fills well with water and sinks safely. But the mountain stream is fast, so the ball still floated several meters. The ball lived for a long time.

Tiko Water Ball

The Tiko ball kids made to play with… in water. The older kids had so much fun – they threw the ball away, and they had to catch it very quickly, otherwise it would drown.

Tiko Pen

A giant pen made from Tiko panels. It looks impressive, but, sadly, doesn’t write.
