This toy is great to spur kid's imagination. I was really impressed by all the things my 4 year old build. This toy kept him busy for hours.

This review is from: Magnetix 70-pc. Translucent Set-Ages 6+ (Toy)

If you have a little builder in your house, be SURE to buy these! I originally bought the little 20-piece starter set at my local kroger store and boy, were they a hit! The only problem that I can find with these things is that someone out there NEEDS TO DESIGN A CONTAINER for these things! Boy, I've been finding these things everywhere. Other than that, they are just superb. My little one spends hours and hours building things with this set and just cannot wait to get up in the morning to see what else he can make. They're great for preschoolers learning fine motor skills too and not as limiting as Legos can be. I highly recommend these things - my husband loves playing with them as much as my little one does. Boy, the things they can build with these things! Ferris wheels, garbage trucks, towers, geometric shapes, etc., etc., etc. Great, great toy - we're buying more! Oh, as far as that container thing is concerned, we put ours in a coffee can. They stick to the sides and don't fall out! Great Toy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Creative fun, May 5, 2005

Mom of 3 Boys (California, United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Magnetix 70-pc. Translucent Set-Ages 6+ (Toy)

My 5 year old got this as a present. I was amazed at the creative things he made! My 3 year old joined in the fun by making letters of the alphabet. I highly recommend this. Note that these magnets are heavy. If your child throws things, these would REALLY hurt or damage something.
