The present invention relates to educational toy sets and methods for generating an auditive signal. An educational toy set according to the present invention comprises a shape 2, 2′, 3, 4 having at least one shape-identifier 2, 1, 2, 2 corresponding to one or more shape-features. The toy set further comprises an identification element having at least one reader to detect and/or activate at least one shape-identifier inside an effective range of the at least one reader and a processing unit adapted at processing a detecting and/or activating of at least one shape-identifier by the reader. It also comprises an output unit adapted at giving an auditive input reflective of the processing of said detecting and/or activating in conjunction with the one or more shape-features.

An educational game includes a controller and a computer to operate software; a game board, having a first transparent layer with slots arranged in a grid; a second layer housing a plurality of LEDs; a third layer housing the controller and computer; and an activation button; blocks to engage with the slots, each of the blocks having an encoding on a bottom surface; the blocks represent circuit elements and the slots represent electrically active slots for the circuit elements, thereby forming a circuit; the blocks allow a user to create a user modeled circuit; and the computer creates the user modeled circuit and analyzes the user modeled circuit to create a visualization feedback associated with the user modeled circuit, the visual feedback providing one or more unique LED patterns and one or more LED brightness variables to symbolize current flow and power intensity.

A board game is disclosed that includes at least two remote-controlled figures moving on a game board. Each of at least two remote-controlled figures moves to knock over an opponent's building models situated at predetermined build sites on the game board. A method of playing the game is also disclosed that includes: each player selecting a remote-controlled figure and a plurality of building models; situating each remote-controlled figure at a predetermined start site on the game board; situating the building models at the plurality of predetermined build sites on the game board; and moving each remote-controlled figure to knock down an opponent's plurality of building models.

The Letter Cubes are block to make buildings that do not just make a statement with their rooms, walls and the like, but also make verbal statements with the blocks themselves. It has a series of three-dimensional fonts made with metal, plastic, ceramic, glass, recycled materials and other materials that magnetically, with knobs, hooks, snaps and tubes (and combinations of these and other interfaces) assemble into walls, buildings and other structures that communicate messages. These alphabets also have a series of related pieces that include numbers, punctuation and additional knobs, beams and panels that enable construction of a wide range of buildings, toys, structures and objects that are artistic, toys, games and that are otherwise useful as boxes, chairs, tables, etc. The invention comes in its own box that is assembled further to the same logic as the alphabets so it does not have packaging waste.

An IoT enhanced educational system is to be operated by a user, and includes a learning aid unit, a positioning unit and a processing unit. The learning aid unit includes a plurality of objects that are configured to be moved by the user. The positioning unit is configured to determine a position of each of the objects and to generate position data associated with the positions of the objects. The processing unit is electrically connected to the positioning unit for receiving therefrom the position data, and is configured to generate, according to the positions of the objects contained in the position data, an assessment associated with the user.

A game apparatus comprises a set of fifteen dual-sided playing pieces, a pair of dice, a stock tray, and at least two collector trays. Each of the dual-sided playing pieces has a first face comprising an indicia selected from a plurality of indicia and a second face, opposite the first face, comprising another indicia selected from the plurality of indicia. Each die comprises a number of facets corresponding to the number of indicia in the plurality of indicia. The stock tray is configured to hold a predetermined number of the dual-sided playing pieces that are available for play. Each of the at least two collector trays are configured to hold a predetermined number of the dual-sided playing pieces that are no longer available for play.

A method of playing a game includes commencing a building phase, which includes placing a plurality of first player barrier pieces and first player battle pieces, and at least one first player king piece in a first player fortress arrangement, and placing a plurality of second player barrier pieces and second player battle pieces, and at least one second player king piece in a second player fortress arrangement. The method further includes subsequently commencing a battle phase including propelling a first player battle piece toward the second player fortress arrangement, contacting the at least one second player king piece by the first player battle piece, and eliminating the second player king piece in response to being contacted.
