Tangram

Tangrams are an ancient form of puzzle making originating in China around 250 years ago. 'Tan' means 'pieces', and 'grams' means 'pictures'. A square is divided into seven pieces: two large triangles, two small triangles, a medium sized triangle, a small square, and a parallelogram. By arranging these 7 geometric shapes, one can create hundreds of different designs of people, animals and objects!
