What our experts think
The Magna-Tiles Builder Set introduces children to the versatile and magnetic tiles which are great for encouraging open-ended play. This offers fantastic opportunities for children to design, connect and build which helps them to develop important STEM skills such as logical thinking, visual planning and creative problem-solving.
By exploring the moving parts and how the pieces connect, children develop their understanding of geometric shapes, structures and magnets. The freedom to design whatever structure they want has great appeal and allows children to engage their imagination and use their creativity too. Children worked together with their peers to design, build and engage in post-build imaginative play, which promotes communication, language and storytelling skills.
