FRACTILES-7 award winning magnetic tiling toy allows you to create an infinite variety of beautiful designs.
Use it to create starbursts, spirals, butterflies, bouquets of flowers, swarms of fireflies, spaceships, illusions of 3D space, and lots more. Easy and creative. A magnetic toy for all ages!
The large version features 192 brilliantly colored flexible magnetic tiles, sturdy 12 inch x 12 inch black textured steel activity board, color illustrated instructional material, and double record album style package to store board and tiles. Great for the ambitious budding designer or for classroom use...more than a simple set of refrigerator magnets.
All Fractiles-7 sets are:
Award-Winning: Fractiles-7 received a Parents' Choice Award for play and educational value, quality and design.
Versatile: Use these wonderful little diamond-shaped tiles to easily create seven-fold snowflakes, starbursts, spirals, and much more. The versatile, elegant geometry allows anyone to create endless varieties of imaginative and beautiful designs, ranging from very simple to infinitely complex. Individuals can spend tireless hours discovering new levels of play and design.
Wide in Appeal: Fractiles fans range from young children to seniors, from those with no math background to advanced math researchers.
More than Refrigerator Magnet Fun: The magnetic tiles stay put - yet slide easily on their specially textured board - a helpful feature guaranteed to improve fine motor skills.
Great for Building Pattern Recognition Skills: Pattern recognition skills are key to learning. Lack of pattern recognition skills is linked to learning disabilities. Fractiles-7 is so much fun you may not even notice how regular play increases your pattern recognition skills. This magnetic learning toy will capture your attention and expand your learning potential.
'Fractiles is so popular with my first graders, that we have to have a sign up for equal turns!' - teacher Marilyn Bowker
'My 7th and 8th graders live for free time so they can play with Fractiles.' - Sandra Bullard, The Prentice School, Where Children with Dyslexia Learn to Learn

As one of the top online toy retailers, we have access to unprecendented quantities of product review data. One of the key ways that we use this data is by associating our products to the specific ages and genders of the kids who are playing with them. Whereas most retailers must rely upon manufacturer suggested ages (i.e. 3+), we take actual customer usage and share it with you here so that you can choose the perfect toy or game.
But how does this help me? You can use these graphs as a general measure of it's appropriateness for a given age and gender. While this information is generally accurate, it should not be used as an absolute answer. For instance, many dinosaur toys are purchased for boys, however, that doesn't mean that it's inappropriate for a girl who happens to like dinosaurs.

NOTE: The orange color in the charts above indicate ages that are LESS than the manufacturer suggested age. Please purchase at your discretion if your child is younger than 6 years of age.

Fractiles Review

My 5 year old got this for his birthday- He will sit for quite a while and try to copy the pictures of the shapes...I love the concept of limitless possibilities- he can copy a picture, or create something from his own imagination. My only problem with the set is that the pieces come all in a sheet that needs to be broken apart, and they are quite thin! we lost of few pieces in the set up, but I don't think it will effect the use of the set. Would highly recommend for creative play!!
Awesome toy!

I bought this toy for my 6 year old son and he is enjoying it, but I really think I love it more than he does! It is a fun, interactive toy that really makes you use your brain. I am glad to find products that are not electronic to entertain my child.

My child recently showed an interest in really figuring out how to make/build different things, and with Fractiles, she can make hundreds of patterns with the same pieces.
