MagnaTiles

MagnaTiles is a brand of magnetic building toys designed for children. The sets consist of various geometric shapes, such as squares, triangles, and rectangles, each with embedded magnets along their edges. These magnets allow the pieces to easily connect and disconnect, enabling children to construct a wide range of 2D and 3D structures.

The toys are known for their translucent, colorful design, which can be used to create stained-glass effects when held up to light. MagnaTiles are marketed as educational tools that promote STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) learning. They help develop spatial reasoning, problem-solving skills, creativity, and an understanding of geometry and basic physics principles.

The brand offers various starter sets and expansion packs, including pieces with different textures, colors, and even moving parts like wheels. MagnaTiles are generally suitable for children aged three and up. Their simple yet versatile nature has made them a popular choice for both home and educational settings. The magnetic connection system is designed to be strong enough to hold structures together while remaining easy for small hands to manipulate.
