For more than 20 years, Magna-Tiles have exceeded parents’ expectations for safety, durability, and is a toy that children will want to play with when other toys in their toy box have long since been forgotten.
Magna-Tiles and Magna-Qubix are from a family-owned company located outside of Chicago, IL. Magna-Tiles were invented by a Japanese mathematics teacher who wanted to create a better hands-on experience when learning geometric concepts in school and at home. In 1997, Magna-Tiles were introduced to the US with the goal of building an interest in STEM subjects and inspiring the next generation of lifelong makers, creators and learners!

I have invested in several sets over the years and these are also a toy that holds its value and can be resold.
I have invested in several sets over the years and these are also a toy that holds its value and can be resold.
I chose this particular set because it included the piece with wheels, and a few other extras. These babies can really keep a kid occupied for a good bit of time, and are not at all frustrating. My 6 and 8 year old nephews have had them for years and still use them on occasion.
Magna-Tiles are expensive, but I've never seen a young kid pass them up - for the creative and developmental benefits, as well as the breather it can offer tired parents, they're worth every penny!
She took immediately to these things. On her first playing, she built a small house for some princess characters she had plus a garage, roof, even a garden. Because the magnetic plastic tiles are easier to line up, no frustration issues either. Sometimes a piece will fall, but she'll just slide it right back in place. So far so good.
These are a little pricey, but I think it's great for playing with plus teaching her shapes. When she first started playing with them, she kept calling the triangle - squares. So it's good teach her the correct names for all the shapes. I made a cube and pyramid for her too, and she loved that.
Education, fun, and mostly frustration free so it's definitely worth the price. I bought the 100 piece Magna-Tiles set too, and I may get even more.
I did not purposely buy the clear set, which has the exact same pieces as the 48 piece solid color set. I got it because it was Amazon Prime available and the solid color set was not. When I bought the clear set it was only a couple of dollars more expensive than the solid color set. The clear was selling for $67 and the solid color set was selling for $65.
Fortunately, my two kids agreed that the solid set is my daughter's and the clear set is my son's. So no more warfare concerning this one toy!
The quality of this set is as good as the original set we bought. The pieces are durable and can take a reasonable amount of banging. I should add that neither of my children is rough with their toys, so rarely do toys in my house break. (Neither throws their toys, jumps on them, etc.) I should add the pieces are the exact same proportion as our older set so pieces between the two are interchangeable.
I highly recommend this toy. It may seem pricey but it lasts and your kids will play with them for a long time.
When my daughter plays with these tiles on her own, she creates shapes and patterns in 2 dimensions on the carpet, the kitchen floor or the fridge. Squares and triangles merge together into a multicolored, crystalline work of abstract art. She truly gets lost in her own world when she's making her pieces of Magna-Tile "art."
Pros:
1. Encourage creative play whether it's building towers or making artwork.
2. Durable.
3. Building requires finesse and refined motor skills.
Cons:
1. Expensive
2. To build anything truly tall or challenging, you need a second set.
The combination of 1. and 2. made me give this product 4 stars instead of 5.
Despite their somewhat steep price, I would recommend these tiles.

Costano e una scatola obbiettivamente non basta ma sono fantastiche.
Update after some months: Very sturdy, almost unbreakable. Very addictive for even adults !
