PIXIO

PIXIO is a popular brand known for its magnetic building kits that consist of cube-shaped parts. In each PIXIO set, all the pieces are identical, with the only variation being the colors. The only difference between different PIXIO sets is the number of pieces and the colors included.

Although the magnetic cubes in PIXIO sets are smaller than those found in most magnetic building kits, measuring only 8mm each, they are still remarkably strong. They have the ability to keep rather big toys together once assembled. These cubes are designed to be used as “pixels” in both 2D and 3D sculptures and toys. They can be easily assembled, played with, and then reassembled again, offering endless creative possibilities.

Play Brainy 101 Pieces Magnetic Building Blocks Set

Play Brainy brand’s magnetic building kit. This set includes 101 relatively large pieces of various shapes, such as cubes, arches, and cylinders. All the pieces are translucent and come in different colors. The great thing about these pieces is that they can be assembled in any direction, and the magnets are strong enough to keep the assembled toys together even while children move them around.

The Wild Ones  – Wild Animals

Another very cute set of Kid K’Nex. The suitcase, by the way, doesn’t close very tightly. The set has octagonal plates for creating wild animals – like tiger, zebra, leopard… Some corrugated tubes. An interesting blue piece you can make a beak of a toucan or a rhinoceros horn – in our photo this is the body of a snail on the right. 4 cute tiger paws, a pair of cat ears – we tried to reflect the most interesting details of this set in the photo. We bought it second-handed – unfortunately, K’NEx doesn’t produce it anymore.
