Based on angular multiples of seven, Fractiles fit together in a literally countless variety of geometrical and fractal patterns. Fractiles can also be pieced together to form pictures like the ones displayed on this page, or pictures using the tiles as incontiguous pieces.
From dragonflies to ice crystals to sunflowers to stars, there is no limit to the number of ways Fractiles can be arranged! fractile 9 fractiles 7 butterflyFractiles appeal to a wide variety of people of any age. Children enjoy fitting the pieces together and making pictures, discovering how the tiles can match up and make patterns. Adults and teenagers also enjoy thinking of new patterns that make the tiles all fit together congruently, producing kaleidoscope-like images. Mathematically inclined people will appreciate Fractiles as much as more artistically-inclined people, and child development psychologists acclaim Fractiles as a great toy for encouraging mathematical and visual skills in children. fractile chicken
fractiles pinwheelIt is relaxing and engrossing to sit down and make art with Fractiles. It is recommended that first time users duplicate a pattern pictured on the packaging, and then change some part of the pattern. Maybe remove the middle section, reposition the removed pieces around the outer edge, and watch the picture change before your very eyes! Or arrange some random pattern of Fractile pieces and then just keep adding more pieces however they fit. With only the smallest bit of patience, the random pattern will grow and evolve into a new work of art every time! fleet of fractiles
Fractiles are made of flexible, magnetized, rubber-like material that does not crack, break, or have sharp edges. Storage is very easy because they can be put into a ziploc bag, a tupperware container, a tin, on the refrigerator, or displayed on a bookshelf with the metal plate included with the large Fractiles set.

WARNING!

If you display you Fractile creations on the refrigerator or in any easily reachable place, people of any age usually can't resist the urge to rearrange the tiles and see what they can make with Fractiles!
