Geometry could be an all-time favorite subject for children if they were asked to learn it by making different structure by themselves. The video illustrates how we can explain geometrical fundamentals with the help of cycle tube-valve and sticks !! 

Once explained the definition of platonic solids, we can create various types of structures with face type as triangle, square and pentagons.


Q & A:
How many platonic solids can be formed using triangles? 
How many platonic solids can be formed using square and Pentagon? Why can not we go further?

Have you ever wondered why are there only 5 platonic solids?
Were you ever intrigued about their characteristics? Watch to know more!
