My favourite is the parallelogram – just because it’s so fun to say!

Fractals!
Fractals are naturally occurring phenomena of nature which looks random but in fact shows a mathematical code that explains the snowflake ( and other things ).

Fractals are also a great way of introducing kids to the magic of nature showing the hidden mathematical code.

Otherwise- Rhombus. Its a cool name and deserves some recognition since these days its more commonly referred to as a diamond which is a bit like describing your car as your wheels… it can mean exactly the same thing but one of them actually only sounds acceptable when used by young children and from anyone else just sounds lame.
