Since my childhood I have always loved wood toys and I am trying to instill that very same interest to my one year old child, aka Piccoletto.

Searching the Internet for wooden toys I have found Brio Wooden Toys.

Brio is a company with a great heritage in building wooden toys being established in 1884 by Ivar Bengtsson.

Going through their web site you will be able to find the best wood toys I have ever seen since now. While I was browsing the site I noticed a very interesting link on right sidebar linking to a section called “Network”. I was very intrigued and decided to follow the link.

I then found that Brio is building a set of wooden toys that simulate computer networks. These toys can be used to explain to a child how computer networks work in real world without even using a real computer. A very similar set of toys exists for e-mail, cd burner and computer viruses.

I definitely think this is a very interesting approach while teaching children complex concepts. Trying to simplify complex concepts is the right way to go.

Anyway I think that there are also several grown up children who can effectively use this kind of toys

You can go through the complete list of Brio’s network toy by clicking here.
