A square pyramid net with four colored triangle sides (stars, hearts, circles and diamonds) and a square base. A hands-on way to learn the 3D shape: count its 5 faces, 8 edges and 5 corners. Print on card stock for a sturdier result. Big pictures and only a few tasks per page make it a gentle start for kindergartners.
