After becoming a first-time aunt, I’ve learned that, when it comes to gifts, toddlers are overall very easy to please. But one toy my niece reaches for over and over again are Magna-Tiles. They’re translucent, colorful plastic shapes that feature magnets on all sides for endless building fun. And right now, travel sets are 30% off, bringing the price down from $20 to just $14. That means you can take them on-the-go for less.
Equipped with 26 “microMAGS” and a metal travel case, Magna-Tiles’ travel set is pretty hard to beat. As the “micro” name implies, the tiles are smaller than in typical sets. And this set in particular comes with four right triangles, four isosceles triangles, six equilateral triangles and 12 squares. They are compatible with other Magna-Tiles sets (including the classic ones), and each piece is made to last, with a crack-resistant build and fastening rivets to secure the magnets.
Each piece of the Magna-Tiles set is also food-grade and non-toxic. They’re free of BPAs, phthalates and latex. They encourage engaging and imaginative play, and since they’re super easy to pull apart, they provide an easy building experience. They also help develop fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. The small pieces strengthen their dexterity while building helps them understand how shapes connect.
With 4.8 stars and more than 2,000 ratings, shoppers really seem to love the portability of this set. “This mini set of Magna-Tiles is perfect for on the go. They are compact enough for the diaper bag and have entertained our child well through long car rides and restaurant waits,” one shopper writes. “They work just like the regular magnet tiles, just simply smaller. I love that they come in this metal case so that they are all well contained in a single spot.”
Other parents note they’re an easy, fun and quality toy. “Great quality product,” another review reads. “Easy to use, bright colors. Great for on the go or quiet play.”
Magna-Tiles travel sets are a goldmine for on-the-go fun. But grab one before the price goes back up, because this sale won’t last long!
