Category: Magnetic Building Kits
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.
Magformers Neon – Present
Magnets in Magformers frames are strong enough to hold pieces both side-by-side or in a stack. There are no right or wrong ways to build something, and kids may experiment and create most unexpected things.
Without Gears
Version of the heavy cargo plane. Made from EDTOY Da Vinci series.
Tegu Bulldozer With Trailer
I like to take magnetic construction sets somewhere outdoors – to the park, on a car trip, on a summer vacation. So the magnetic Tegu often lives in a car or stroller. We unexpectedly found a metal garden bench in the park, and Afonya (1.9) immediately began to sculpt the details of his favorite set on it. Well, the sisters and mother corrected the structures, turning them into more familiar objects, like a bulldozer, for example. Afonya added the wheels himself.

Melissa & Doug Matching Picture Game
This is less a mosaic and more a game with pictures. It has magnetic board, few scenery cards you can choose from, and magnetic pieces with pictures on them. The mosaic pieces are parts of animals, vehicles and other objects, and have accordings shapes and picture on them.
A Boy On A Carousel
A carousel ride. A very exciting and surprisingly sturdy toy.
Magnetic Stick N Stack – Magna-Tiles Version
So I’ve ordered the smallest set of Magnetic Stick N Stack – 50 parts. Simply of interest – to see what kind of clone it is and what quality it has. I also liked the cute grids. Made in China – this is not surprising, but one part is missing a magnet, however, this is not fatal. There are round holes in the corners of the parts – you are supposed to insert the axle/rod to which the wheel is attached. There are no complaints about the quality, the magnetic properties and size are the same as those of Magna-Tiles. The children really liked the grids and L-shaped parts, it’s a pity that there are not very many of them in the set – 4 pieces of each type.
