The perfect puzzle can do a plethora of good. The amazing X-Ball will be a benefit to anyone looking for a good brain bender or needing inspiration. The inspiration for the X-Ball is the "skeletal" icosidodecahedron, an orb-like geometric figure long admired for its beauty (it was one of Leonardo da Vinci’s favorite shapes). The X-Ball comes with a 96-page page creativity guide that’s filled with exercises and brainstorming tips. Spend hours tinkering with this terrific educational toy in classroom, playrooms, at the office, on the table as a great conversation piece and more. It’s lots of fun to play with! Created by world renowned puzzler Roger von Oech, the X-Ball is a creativity workshop in and of itself. Use it to design new shapes, as a relaxation aid to free your mind from the hustle of life and more! Inspiring innovation, the X-Ball is great as a desk toy, holiday, or birthday gift!
