Magnetic tiles are one of those toys that quietly become a household favourite. They encourage creativity, problem-solving, and imagination as children build, knock down, and rebuild in their own way. Great for ages 3 and up, they grow with your child and work just as well for solo play as they do for siblings playing together. A lovely balance of learning and fun, and a toy that’s still being used long after Christmas.
