5 out of 5 stars Fantastic, Long-lived Toy   October 10, 2006

I have nothing but positive things to say about this toy. I purchased it for my 1 yr. old, not expecting her to get much play value out of it initially. However, a year later it has brought her -- and her father! -- constant play value. From learning about "apart" and "together, color grouping, magnetic polarity, learning shapes, stringing together, rolling, and everthing in between, the excellence of Magneatos seems basically limitless. And although she can't build complicated structures at this point, she enjoys watching us make different sculptures that she can help manipulate, break apart, and reconstruct. Another fantastic thing about this toy is that the magnets are just the right strength -- they stay stuck together when they need to, but are also easy to pull apart, avoiding frustrating a toddler.

I recommend (and have recommended) this to everyone I know.

We bought these for our toddler several months ago. She is too little to make the constructions, but loves stringing the magnets together to make 'snakes'. She finds steel objects in the house that the magnets stick to. She likes them a lot more than wooden blocks. They are a good large size, but not too big for little hands to hold, easy to tidy up and don't hurt if you step on them!

I like this because any age can enjoy playing and building with the Magneatos. We got this for our 3 year old granddaughter but her 9 month old brother likes to play with it. The pieces are large enough that we don't worry about any little one choking.

The Magneatos caught my attention because I have an original set with the small pieces. The small set is not practical for toddlers and infants. This allows kids to be creative while learning colors and shapes. The 3 year old I bought it for loved it! It was the gift that distracted him from opening all his presents at Christmas!

I can't brag enough about these. My 21 mo old son plays with them all the time. He hasn't quite gotten into the creating different things with them yet but he loves the magnetic pull they have and is reconnecting them constantly. They are fairly lightweight despite having magnets in them.

I would recommend getting more than one set though. We have 2 sets and a third might be a little better to do more things with them.
