ABSTRACT:
There are disclosed basic construction elements for forming toy modular units. The elements consist of polygonal shaped structural connecting members (10) into which the corners or one three sided opening of floor panels (14) may be inserted and held. Supporting members or columns (12) are inserted into circular openings (22) formed in the connecting members to hold the floor panels to the connecting members and to support connecting members and further floor members so as to form open modular structures (16). The structures may be easily put together by a child user, and are safe because the construction prevents children from climbing on them since the easily taken apart elements are fitted together in such a manner that a predetermined load applied to the top of an assembled structure will cause it to break apart.
