What do you do when the seatbelt sign is off, the tray table is down and the snack cart is still ten rows away? Out comes this small metal tin with 24 magnetic tiles inside, ready to snap into towers, houses and other shapes at cruising altitude. In my time as a kindergarten teacher, I’ve never met a child who didn’t flock to Magna-Tiles like a moth to a flame.
The microMAGS travel tin comes with four right triangles, four isosceles triangles, six equilateral triangles and 12 squares. The tin doubles as a baseplate, so your child’s builds will stay put on a tray table, a train seat or a restaurant booth.
The brand says the tiles encourage hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills, and the tin is made for kids ages 3 and up. An easy win here!
Rotate out your traditional set with a seasonal version from time to time and surprise your child during holidays—there’s Winter Wonder, Spooky, Gingerbread, Heart to Heart and Spring Garden.
