Construction set toy

Abstract

A toy building construction set is disclosed which comprises a plurality of geometrically shaped thin panels. Each panel has loop and hook strips positioned at borders of the geometrically shaped thin panels, which can be used to attach the panels to one another. A number of different large scale structures can be made by children using these safe, light weight panels which simulate actual structures found in architecture.

What is claimed is:  
     
         1 ) A toy building construction set, comprising: 
 i) a plurality of geometrically shaped thin panels, each panel having a soft texture; and    ii) hook strips positioned at sides of said geometrically shaped thin panels; wherein said panels can be attached to one another by use of said loop and hook strips positioned at said sides of said panels.    
     
     
         2 ) The toy building construction set according to  claim 1 , wherein said geometrically shaped thin panels are comprised of material selected from the group consisting of polyurethan foam, rubber, neoprene, foam rubber, and styrofoam.  
     
     
         3 ) The toy building construction set according to  claim 1 , wherein said geometrically shaped thin panels are resilient.  
     
     
         4 ) The toy building construction set according to  claim 1 , wherein said geometrically shaped thin panels are flexible.  
     
     
         5 ) The toy building construction set according to  claim 1 , wherein said geometrically shaped thin panels further comprise an outer covering.  
     
     
         6 ) The toy building construction set according to  claim 5  wherein said outer covering of said geometrically shaped thin panels is selected from the group consisting of plastic and cloth.  
     
     
         7 ) The toy building construction set according to  claim 6 , wherein said hook strips are positioned on a flap extending from said outer covering of said panel.  
     
     
         8 ) The toy building construction set according to  claim 1 , wherein said geometrically shaped thin panels are angular in shape.  
     
     
         9 ) The toy building construction set according to  claim 8 , wherein said geometrically shaped thin panels are in the shapes selected from the group consisting of rectangles, squares, triangles, pentagons, and hexagons.  
     
     
         10 ) The toy building construction set according to  claim 1 , wherein said panels are between about one-half inch and about one inch in width
