<p>A child's constructional toy or a kit of parts for constructing a toy or model comprises a set of components such as (A) and (B) formed from a laminate material with at least three layers, each of the outermost layers (1) and (2) being of a flexurally resistant material such as wood and each bonded to a respective surface of an inner layer (2) being of a compressibly resilient material such as a closed cell foam material, the components being made to interengage using a slotted or recessed arrangement (4) in one component (B) whereby the other component (A) can be fitted edge-wise into the slot (4) by a slight compression applied between the outer layers of the component (A) . The slot width (W) of the component (B) is marginally narrower than the uncompressed width (X) of the component (A) whereby after such engagement the restoration of the width (X) provides retention.</p> |
