Magna-Tiles®

Shop Magna-Tiles for creative fun

Magna-Tiles revolutionized magnetic building when they introduced their transparent, geometric tiles in the 1990s. These colorful magnetic tiles use strong neodymium magnets that rotate to connect on all edges, creating secure bonds that allow children to build vertically and horizontally. The transparent design creates beautiful light effects when stacked, turning simple constructions into colorful art pieces that engage children visually while they learn.

Building blocks for bright futures

Magnetic building toys support children's development through hands-on construction play that naturally incorporates STEAM learning principles. Working with magnetic tiles helps develop fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination as children manipulate pieces into position. The building process engages spatial thinking and problem-solving skills as children figure out how to create stable structures. Magna-Tiles are made from food-grade MABS plastic, which is free from BPA, phthalates, and latex, ensuring safe play for young builders.

Why choose these magnetic building tiles?

These magnetic building tiles transform abstract learning concepts into hands-on experiences that children naturally understand. When children connect the transparent tiles, they observe cause-and-effect relationships while exploring geometry, balance, and structural engineering principles. The magnetic connections provide immediate feedback: successful builds stay together while unstable structures fall apart, teaching physics concepts through play.

Develop key skills with every creation

Building with magnetic tiles strengthens fine motor control as children grasp, position, and connect pieces with precision. The three-dimensional building process develops spatial reasoning skills as children visualize how flat pieces create solid structures. Pattern recognition emerges naturally as children discover which combinations work and begin to replicate successful designs.

Unleash your child's inner architect

The geometric shapes in these sets—squares, triangles, and rectangles—combine in countless ways to create everything from simple houses to complex castles. Different sets work together seamlessly, allowing children to expand their building possibilities as their skills develop. The magnetic connections hold securely enough for vertical building, enabling ambitious projects that might topple with traditional blocks.

How do Magna-Tiles support creative play?

The open-ended nature of magnetic building encourages children to create their own play scenarios rather than following predetermined instructions. This type of construction toys grows with children's developing abilities, offering new challenges and creative possibilities as their building confidence increases. The transparent design adds visual appeal, creating colorful light effects that enhance the magical quality of their creations.

Experience the joy of easy building

The magnetic connection system in these tiles eliminates the frustration that often comes with traditional building blocks. Unlike snap-together pieces that require precise alignment or force, the magnets guide pieces into position naturally, allowing children as young as three to build successfully from their first attempt. The neodymium magnets create strong connections that hold securely in all directions, while the transparent MABS plastic allows children to see the magnetic attraction working as pieces snap together.

Thoughtfully designed for young builders

These building tiles are made from food-grade MABS plastic, a material specifically chosen for its ability to withstand repeated handling and the inevitable drops that come with enthusiastic play. The design includes a signature grille that helps prevent cracking, adding to the tiles' long-lasting nature. The magnets are securely fixed inside the tiles, and the tiles are free from BPA, phthalates, and latex, which gives parents peace of mind.

Tiles are perfect for sharing and teamwork

Magnetic building tiles naturally invite collaboration because multiple children can work on the same structure without pieces falling apart from accidental bumps. When children build with magnetic toys, they can share ideas and work towards a common goal. You can also find other building blocks and wooden blocks and magnetic toys that work well for group play.

Find your Magna-Tiles set

The first Magna-Tiles set shapes how children approach building and creativity for years to come. The sets include squares, triangles, and rectangles in transparent colors like red, blue, green, and yellow, which allow children to create colorful structures. Some collections also include microMAGS pieces, which are 75% smaller than standard tiles and add detailed elements to larger builds.

Grow your world with more tiles

All Magna-Tiles sets share the same magnetic system, which means any new set will connect perfectly with existing pieces. This compatibility allows for larger towers, more detailed houses, and complex geometric patterns. The strong neodymium magnets maintain secure connections even in large structures, so expanded builds stay stable during play. You can also find educational games and blocks and construction toys that can complement building play.
