The Periodic Table of the Elements

The building blocks of the universe, now made from plastic building blocks! The periodic table represents all known chemical elements in a grid of rows and columns, known as periods and groups. It was invented in 1869 by Dmitri Mendeleev, and visually categorizes elements by their properties. It is an icon of the field of chemistry.

This periodic table features 803 pieces, including 125 printed parts for 118 elements and the title bricks. Each element has a 2x2 tile with the atomic number and symbol, and sits loosely in the frame. As the builder assembles this set, the instructions would share fun facts about individual elements or give information abouts shared properties of a group of elements.
