Magnetic Tile Sets
Start with a basic 100 piece set and add on from there! We’ve asked for these for multiple birthdays and Christmases to build our collection!
Magnetic Building Tiles · PicassoTiles
This is a fun set to add on!
Race Car Tracks
We have 3 sets of these and they take some adult help to build and setup for anyone under age 8. They’re super fun once setup, and are more durable than I expected!
