I can't say enough good things about Magna Tiles! I have a home daycare, and if there was one toy that was a must have for my kids it would be Magna Tiles. I bought the smaller set of Magna Tiles about 3 years ago. The kids (ages 9 months-school age) loved them so much that I had to buy the bigger set. Magna Tiles are great for teaching kids about colors, counting, hand eye coordination, depth perception, sharing, and creativity. They are also very sturdy. I have never had one break and they are put through the ringer. They also have no small parts so even kids that put everything in their mouths can play with them. My advice to any parent would be to buy the bigger set. You will want more if you buy the smaller set. Also, make sure you have a place to store them. They can easily get lost if they're not kept together. We keep ours in a draw string bag and that works really well. I would highly recommend Magna Tiles to anyone and everyone.

I was impressed by the high ratings that this toy gets.  It really is quality stuff and all three of my boys, ages 7, 5 and 2 have enjoyed playing with them.  They can build a castle for their knights, an arena for their hexbugs, and so much more.  I love toys that require some imagination and this is one.  The quality is great and they should last for years.

My kids love Magna Tiles.  I first saw them at our local Children's Museum.  My kids loved playing with them, and I asked the grandparents to give them Magna tiles for their next Christmas present.  We have the solid colored ones though, not the clear ones.  They are a littly pricey, but I think they are worth their price for their timeless value and how they encourage creativity.  I love toys without batteries and annoying sounds!  It amazes me what my kids can create with these thanks to the magnetic properties.  Also, whenever we have children over to play, they migrate right to the magna tiles because usually they haven't seen them before. They are great toys for a wide range of children as well.  My 10 year old loves them as much as my 2 year old!  There are certain toys that just stand the test of time.  These are one of them.  I will definitely save them for the grandkids after my 5 kids are done with them.

I bought these about 2 years ago and both my children still love and play with these.  These Magna tiles can be likened to magnetic legos.  There are so many possibilities for how children can manipulate these to make and create things.  They can make 2 dimensional to 3 D patterns.  My children prefer the translucent ones best.  I first saw these at the elementary school and they are good for children ages 3 to 63 (ha-ha).  If you looking for a durable toy that will challenge your child's imagination -- this is the toy for you. We have TV off days in our home and when we do this Magna Tiles are the first thing they reach for.  They usually play for at least an hour sometimes longer.  As a busy working mom the longer the better.  In addition, the clean up is much easier than legos. Tip: The more tiles you buy the better so bite the bullet and get at least the 100 piece set.
