The pictures in the instructions are beautiful, the castles are very impressive, but building such castles requires not just 1 or 2 sets…
The “Castle” Magnetic Building Kit
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.
Plastwood and Magformers – The More Fortified Castle
A slightly more reliable version of the Magformers castle walls.
Tegu Magnetic Wooden Dog
Tegu Explorer Set – Nelson. The parts have good size – they are large, and the dog is almost the life-size of a little poodle. The short plate is 3x6x0.7 cm. The medium plate is 3x12x0.7 cm. The long plate is 3x21x0.7 cm. The short support (pillar, prism) is 3x3x9 cm. The long support (pillar, prism) – 3x3x18 cm. If you add large ears, the head may fall off – you need to carefully consider the size of the pieces.
Another Pattern

Magneto Block Magnetic Building Kit
The Japanese magnetic set Magnet Block is known as Magneto Block in Europe. It comes in a case with a lid that serves as a building plate. 2 hemispheres with magnets are already mounted in the lid, and there are sokets for installing both balls and rods.
The Octopus
Quite unexpectedly, the jar in which the building kit lives with turned into the body of a magnetic octopus. I noticed that recently, children, building something out of these magnetic balls, love to attach some metal parts.
Magformers Inspire – Piggy
Another proposed Magformers Inspire craft. It also reminds that you can not just connect the frames side-by side, but also stack them to create 3D blocks.
Fire Truck
The model attracted us with a fire hose – in fact, its a metal wire with magnetic ends in a flexible plastic case. It can be a straight line, curve, polyline, circle and any other line.
