Some proposed Geomag Glitter crafts. This set is relatively small, it has 30 pieces. But you still can build many things from it – and mix it with any other set, of course.
Magformers Carnival Ride
Another ride you can assemble with the same base and pieces. The rotating part and hexagonal frame around it are the same as in wheel model.
CLICS Roller Box Set
Some Clics sets come in so-called roller box – a plastic chest with wheels you can later use to storage the pieces. This small roller box set also have some less-common arch-like parts.
ClicsToys, a Belgian company established in 2001, operates its very own factory located in Kempen, where they craft the popular Clics building blocks. These building sets mostly have square pieces, all sharing identical form and shape. What sets Clics apart is their ability to connect smoothly at the edges, allowing flexible joint movements.
Using these plastic squares, the creative possibilities are endless, even though Clics sets usually offer relatively few extra pieces and accessories. Some sets may include wheels and decorative panels, but few extra items. The true strength of Clics lies in the generous number of pieces in their sets, allowing you to make even biggest creations with ease. The pieces of Clics are too big to swallow and easy to hold, so they are safe, but some connections can be too tricky to younger kids. So the most sets are recommended for children who are 3 years old or older. However, these sets will be interesting even for the 10-years-olds.
The fundamental building blocks in Clics are square, which naturally leads to the cubic or brick-like structures. However, the great advantage of these blocks is the ability to connect them at various angles, making diverse shapes. Careful assembly can even give you triangular or sloping figures. Nevertheless, the most robust and tough structures in Clics are cube-shaped. Additionally, you can create flat mosaics by combining pieces of different colors.
EXTRA PIECES FOR THE CROUSEL
There are a base, 2 posts, an axle, 2 transparent hexagons, 2 parts to attach the hexagons to the axle. Two magnetic frame hexagons attach to the hexagonal transparent parts. On the photo one is already attached.
UREC Magnetic Blocks
This is the UREC brand’s magnetic building set, designed specifically for small children aged 1-3 years old. This set features pieces that are all cubic in shape and have equal size, but they come in four delightful colors to add variety.
The cubes are intentionally made larger than those found in most sets, ensuring that they are easy for little hands to grasp and play with and making it impossible to accidentally swallow them. These cubes are also completely sealed, preventing children from accessing the magnets inside.
Speaking of magnets, they are strong enough to support these bigger cubes when they are assembled, allowing children to create sturdy structures and enjoy their creations.

Magformers Creator Carnival
This is our favourite magnetic frames set. It has special pieces to make a rotating base. You can assemble something and it will turn like a real carnival ride. If you assemble this base, you can mount a wheel on it. The special frames with children figurines also have joints. The figurines rotate in their frames, and they will always seat with heads up. So you can place the frame anywhere you want.
Smatrmax Orange Barrel – Contents
Decent set! Initially I was not sure about the reliability of Smartmax cars. So I could not stop at any of the many Smartmax sets with vehicles. And then we came across … a barrel. It contains several parts for creating vehicles, 4 pairs of wheels, 3 types of multi-colored rods – long, short and rounded, 6 balls. You can’t build many cars at once, but you certainly 2 different ones, and there are many combinations. We will buy our amgnets and cars enthusiast other sets in the future.
