It's never too early to start developing kids' creativity at a young age, Mag-Genius Tiles inspire youngsters to learn by playing, and children will acquire a strong sense of colours, geometrical shapes including 3D forms, number counts, magnetic polarity, architectural design as well as creativity which is the key factor to success in today's ever-changing environment. Not fancy enough to put under the tree, but if you have a few pounds to spare, they will get you through the Christmas holidays and beyond – and spark a lot of learning along the way.

They’re very entertaining and I also use these to build 3D shapes and show them the difference between 3D and 2D so they’re very educational as well! I feel strongly that a Christmas present should grow with your child, offering further opportunities to play but – in the end – you want the present to be enjoyed on the day.year old boy who enjoys building but will often get a new set of something he can build with (Brio builder, LEGO, etc) but once built, he is very reluctant to take it apart again. Unlike typical toys, each piece of tile can be replaced, and more tiles can always be added to build objects as big as desired. Fun and entertaining, perfect educational presents for school age children that will never go out of style.

Mag-Genius stimulates your child's brain waves by creating exciting and interesting play time while teaching them basic motor skills! I don’t have a photo to show this with magnetic tiles, but one of the delights of plastic tiles is the colour they throw across the room when placed near a light source, whether that’s a torch or a window.

You also don’t want to use every piece making the model described in the instructions, leaving yourself no spare pieces to play with. Bought as my son doesn't like the tiles with windows - he likes the solid tiles for his constuctions. And because the shapes are constructed in such a regular way, it’s obvious which pieces are missing. As I grow, I learn to manipulate this this mental representation of the block without having the real thing in front of me.
