JUMBO SIZED Magneatos construction toys - for small hands and HUGE imaginations!
Pull magnetic Magneatos apart and watch them come together - little kids are amazed by the magnetic forces of attraction and repelling magnets.
The force of the magnets in Magneatos are just right. Strong enough to build something, yet easy enough for growing children to take apart.
Great for teaching cause and effect, and logic. With a little experimenting, (or a little help from others), kids find out that if you cross brace your structures with diagonal pieces or build in triangles - the sky is the limit for building tall and wide!
Make dinosaurs, towers, magic wands, flowers, race cars, hats for grandma…

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 2 years of age.

So fun

My son is two and a half and has a lot of fun with these. I was worried because the magnets aren't really as strong as they should be. Of course my husband and I couldn't resist to try to make things as displayed on the box and ended up with balls dropping all over the floor. However, there were a lot of laughs and we had a blast. My son was smarter than we were and found that putting rods together while using a ball at the end worked great. He had so much fun playing with these and was so proud saying, "Look what I made!" I purchased these for my son because my kindergarten students love the ones I have in my classroom. I got this specific set because they were a bit cheaper than in many other educational magazines. However, after getting them I kind of regretted not spending a bit more. Perhaps the more expensive ones would have stronger magnets. Who knows?

The Magneato pieces were well-constructed and held together well. They were easy for our 2-year old granddaughter to use and engaging enough to keep her grandfather busy, too! They can be put together in an infinite number of ways, from swings to microphones and sparked a lot of imaginative play.

Just wish they were stronger magnets

We purchased these for our 2.5 year old son. He was very excited, but got frustrated when it kept collapsing while he tried to build and lost interest. If the magnets were stronger, he would have kept with it. All of the adults who tinkered with them agreed. They also thought stronger magnets would have been better.

Neomydium magnets are within the Magneatos line, providing a very strong bond between the magnets and metal components. If pieces are arranged to support each other, then collapse is less likely. Magneatos are designed to adhere when they need to, but pull apart easily to accommodate a toddler's strength.)

My son gets frustrated with regular blocks because he wants to bring me whatever he builds to show off, but when he lifts them they fall apart. This is a perfect solution!

Fun for Everyone in the Family

I purchased this for my 2 year old grandson. His older siblings and DAD will hardly let him play with it. They all have fun with this set.
