Magna-Tiles are the beginning of something beautiful.
Magnets adhere in all directions. They click and pull apart for sensory satisfaction. Kids are starry-eyed over the crystal-clear transparency and the magnetic attraction.
Beyond that even, the extra-versatile accessories within the 48 piece Magna-Tiles pave the way for imagination and bring the fun home!
A wheeled chassis - roll into creation of bulldozers and race cars
A hinged door - open and close that barn, space hatch, and dollhouse door
Hole-punched triangles - peer into windows and knotholes of trees
Curved arch - race ahead with plans for a train engine and swimming pool
Young children learn about color, shapes, symmetry, size and scale. Problem solving becomes a whole new attraction. Fine motor skills grow right along with conceptions of all that can be imagined and built!
The Magna-Tiles DX Clear 48-Piece Set includes:
3 large squares
12 small squares
10 right triangles
9 equilateral triangles
6 isosceles triangles
1 wheeled chassis
2 imagination pieces
2 triangles with round window
1 arch
1 square door frame
1 magnetic hinged door
Feeling the pull for a new construction experience? Magna Tiles are brilliant.

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 3 years of age.

Product review of Magna Tiles Clear Colors 48 Piece DX Set

Bought Magna Tiles at Christmas for both my 3 and 4 yr old grandsons. Just bought 3rd set of the 48 pc DX. My 7 yr old granddaughter loves to play too. They fight over the pieces so had to get more. This set has their favorite piece with wheels so makes a great car, truck, boat or train. I keep two sets at my house so they can play here. It is the biggest hit of all the toys.

These tiles are very addicting - we bought the basic set and then quickly realized how much my daughter enjoyed it - so we bought another set - she plays with them everyday

Our six-year-old and our four-year-old both received MagnaTiles sets for Christmas. They had enjoyed them during visits to the
DuPage Childrens' Museum and we were pleased to find them available from Fat Brain Toys (cool name!). They took to playing with them (over other gifts) as soon as they were opened; the four-year-old, who's quite advanced for her age and plays inde- pendently quite well, built some structures displaying symmetry and logical, constructive thought- it's wonderful to see kids play-ing with things they actually manipulate vs. sit affixed to a com-puter screen (yes they play video games too). Toys like the MagnaTiles also offer sidebar benefits like contributing to the development of fine motor skills. Plus, I think the price is quite reasonable- a good value. Overall, a home run.
