This Christmas we bought our second set of Magna-tiles. Their play value has lasted all year, and the expansion of the set was almost as exciting as the first set. My son is disabled, and these are great user-friendly toys with which any child can succeed. They’ve also survived the dog’s inquisitive mouth. We personally like the clear colors, but were tempted to try the opaque tiles (with opening door/window). Last but not least, the tiles foster creativity.

The real critic is my granddaughter who likes the Magna-Tiles lots! This particular set teaches about color combining because the tiles are translucent. We’re finding out that once she figures out a combination she’ll try it in paint as she is “arting.” Originally saw it in a school; it works equally well at home and does not require direct teaching or too much explaining.

My kids first saw these at a friends house a few months ago. Their Mom told me that no matter who comes to visit or how bored the kids are, these always get played with. I love the endless design options and ended up buying the “100″ playset along with 4 of the “32″ piece playsets for my sons 7th birthday. My kids (also a daughter age 8) have made every structure imaginable and continue to find new, inventive ways to play with these. I love that they add their own ideas on with their Magnetix playsets as well. I can forsee that these will help them with geometry as hands-on models that they can replicate…the uses for learning go on and on…from someone who still has all of our original lego duplo playsets, I can see this lasting indefinitely! Highly recommend this item if and when you can find it. Worth the high price!

My 2-year-old son, my husband and I *love* playing with these. We play with them nearly every day. My son likes to build garages and tunnels and put his trains and cars in them. Since they do not lock together, it’s easy to open the doors to put cars in and take them out.
I can see him learning about geometry and spatial relations with these when he’s older… two right triangles make a square, six isosceles triangles make a hexagon, etc.
We received these as a gift. I, personally, would be hard pressed to pay $50 for this set of very simple plastic and magnet tiles, but they are such a good toy, I probably would anyway.

Not only do I agree with the reviewers about how they, are fun for everyone easy to clean up and they have lasted 6x longer than any toy in the house. My mother(also a teacher) bought my kids the big set after playing with the 32 piece set at her house. I thought she was crazy spending all that money on a toy. They get played with every single day, my daughter just built herself a Bakugan Holder. They have been in my house 3 YEARS and have not had one break or crack or anything. My children have been playing with them from 2- 7.5YEARS OLD, and continue to do so. I think they have lasted longer than anything I have ever purchased for them. Clean up is kind of fun because the magnets allow them to be picked up with ease. I LOVE THESE THINGS I don’t think my children will ever outgrow them, and I find them much more fun to build with than any other toy out there!!!!
