Meet the mini version of classic Magna-Tiles—compact and perfect for taking on the go.

This set is fully compatible with other Magna-Tiles sets. microMAGS tiles are 75% smaller than traditional Magna-Tiles, but they fit together perfectly.

The activity is wonderful for your child's well-being and ability to learn:

• Gives your child all kinds of opportunities to unleash their imagination.
• Stimulates your child's fine motor skills.
• Supports your child's spatial awareness, which is important for their future ability to fold a paper star, draw in 3D, or assemble a moving box.

Suitable for ages 3 yrs. to 11 yrs.

Constructing and building is very educational, very fun, and a bit time consuming. We can very easily write a long sales pitch about how building and construction play strengthens your child's hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills as well as their interest in entrepreneurship and understanding of geometry.

With this type of play, your child also gets practical experience with problem-solving when they need to figure out how to design the construction so it doesn't suddenly fall over. Your child's construction play with all sorts of pieces, blocks, and other building materials makes it fun for them to concentrate. And it's just such a confidence boost to build the longest marble run ever or construct a skyscraper higher than yourself, or to maybe create a super cool domino track and film it as it topples.

Do you know Magna-Tiles?

The high-quality magnetic construction toys Magna-Tiles motivate and challenge children to use geometric shapes to build both very small and quite large structures - just like bridges and footballs both consist of a pattern of geometric shapes. Magna-Tiles are magnetic on all sides, so they easily stick to each other via magnetism. They come in many colours, shapes, and themes, so whether your child likes animals or mirror mazes, Magna-Tiles are a great idea.

Magna-Tiles do not repel each other and can be put together no matter which way they're turned, because the tiles are polarised in a way that allows this. Magna-Tiles are made from ABS plastic, which makes them very robust. Since the magnets are placed differently than on Magformers, Magformers and Magna-Tiles do not fit together. But Connetix and Magna-Tiles fit together perfectly.

The magnetic tiles should be cleaned with a damp cloth. They should not be submerged in water or put in the dishwasher or washing machine. If they do get wet, put them upright to dry so the water can drain out.
