Magnetic building kits utilize magnets as connectors, enabling children to create stable and flexible designs. These kits often include magnetic rods and balls or magnetic tiles that easily snap together, providing an engaging building experience.
Virtually all tegu sets have “Natural” version available. Tegu likes to highlight the fact that its sets are wooden, so all color versions usually have uncolored pieces. But “Natural” sets are don’t have paint at all – the pieces are smooth, but have no extra coating. This is craft made from the “Natural” 42-piece set – a huge set by Tegu standards, with lots of pieces included.
The new set is hardly related to the popular type of clothing – jumper, the name is based on the verb Jump. The largest of the 4 is reinforced with 4 wheels with fat tires. Apparently, you are supposed to jump on them. You can build everything – from a simple motorcycle to a truck with a trailer. If there was a propeller, it would be great, but no – the propellers are in other sets. But Tegu now has a character, so to speak, “Tegu’s face” – a cylinder with eyes – indicated by an arrow.
A red version of Geomag Masterbox set. Just like the violet version, it has only rods and balls, and only one color. However, there are 248 pieces – enough to build virtually anything.
6-year-old Alesya built herself a friend – she has a skirt, 2 ponytails, and even a small green bang.
Large-scale construction using can-containers. We built it back when we still had few balls, so we took some of the balls from American Magtastik set. They are larger and not always steel-colored, but my daughters tried to fit them into the color scheme. And as always, there are not enough balls and rods…
The favorite pastime of 6-year-old Anny is building cities from different building sets. This one is from the Magtastik magnetic construction set. She really likes the variety of holders-stands for the balls in this kit.

This adorable Magna-Tiles set has a handful of building tiles and 5 movable, magnetic animal figurines. Lids can attach these animals to any magnetic structure they build or just play with them. All tiles in this set also has jungle-themed prints and colors. The only minus of the set is small amount of pieces – but you can use this set with any other Magna-Tiles.

All pieces in this set are trapezoids equal size. It may look strange at first, but, in fact, this is an optimal form to fill a hexagonal field. The angles of the pieces and the field are actually a perfect match.
