Our mission Our mission was to reinvent our brand without losing our visual history. The new design idea lies in transforming our old logo into a contemporary, fresh, playful but at the same time professional identity. A bold branding system that works consistently through out our products, stationary, online and offline presence. The old triangle is transformed from a flat icon to a 3D prism. A prism that reflects the diverse nature of Teachers First Choice, its large variety of products and its educational values. In the very heart of the prism lies a cube which represents our long history in creating quality dice. The different, smaller parts of Teachers First Choice create a whole - a strong and solid entity - or in other words
“The whole is greater than the sum of its parts� Aristotle

Logo The logo has been designed in a number of versions to accommodate a wide range of applications. A slightly different version of the logo was created for Teachers First Choice Hong Kong. For Teachers First Choice HK emphasis was given on the red and yellow colours because of the special meaning these colours hold in the Chinese culture. (Yellow symbolizes royalty. Red is the Chinese national color and represents happiness, beauty, success and good fortune)

INSTRUCTIONS: The game may be played by 2, 3 or 4 players. An equal number of dominoes are selected by each player. In the case of 3 players, the remaining domino starts the game. Each player lays a corresponding domino or misses a turn if no matching domino is held. Dominoes may be connected in a straight line, or at right angles as desired. The first player to place all their dominoes is the winner. If players are unable to continue then the player with the least number of dominoes is the winner. Please note that any set of TFC Time Dominoes can be combined with any other set of TFC Time Dominoes for increased difficulty and to practice matching words and numbers to clock faces.
