Geomagnets STEM Puzzle Kit

This is a belated review. I purchased this item for my then 2 year old and five year old grandchildren. They loved this set, but started fighting over the pieces. We have since upgraded to a larger 144 piece set and my grandchildren have great fun building together. The 30 piece set is good for one child. If you have more than one child I would recommend a larger set. My grandchildren are now 3 and 6 and they still love them. I am amazed at the length of time they play with them, and how creative they have become. If these are for younger children, I recommend you watch some of the online videos on the different techniques of building so you can help them get started. My grandchildren have asked for more of these for Christmas. They have fun while learning STEM skills and creativity. The two things that I don’t like about them are the expensive price and the enclosed building booklet. The booklet shows objects that you can’t build with a 30 piece set, and the children are disappointed.

I have an Autistic child who loves to build but gets incredibly frustrated with toys that require too much manipulation or fall apart on him. We have tried to many different kinds of magnetic and building toys but none even come close to these. My son absolutely loves them! They're pricey but well worth it for us because of how much he loves them! My other two children also love them. It's easy to build shapes and buildings. They love to play 'guess what I built'.

I am adding a solid 5-star review for this. My daughter received a standard starter set as a gift well over a year ago. When we opened it, she must have been about 2-1/2 years old. We took it on a trip and she loved playing with it! A standard 30-piece set is great to start with, but you will find 30 pieces isn't enough to let your child's imagination fly free. We purchased another larger set about two months after opening this standard set and will continue to add on to her set as long as she enjoys it. I have purchased this standard set as well as more complicated sets as gifts for her classmates birthdays. The attractive colors, durability and the creativity it inspires makes this a great toy for children.

My son is autistic and loves these. He played with these for an hour!! That is the longest a toy has held his attention.

Our toddler loves these! She wears the square ones as bracelets sometimes. They are durable - they’ve been dropped and thrown on tile flooring and none of the plastic has chipped or shattered. The magnet is strong enough to stay put while building a structure but not so strong that our toddler gets frustrated that she can’t pull them apart. I highly recommend these for girls and boys to develop motor skills and creative thinking.
