Ages 3+
The Connetix 32 Piece Pastel Mini Pack may be small, but there is plenty of play packed inside. With squares and two styles of triangles in Connetix’s earthy pastel colours, it is a clever introduction to magnetic tile play or an easy way to add more essential shapes to an existing collection.
Children can connect, build and experiment as they turn simple shapes into houses, animals, boats, towers, car parks, patterns and whatever else they can imagine. The open ended design means there is no single way to play, encouraging children to explore STEAM concepts naturally through building, testing and creating.
Made with the quality and craftsmanship Connetix is known for, each magnetic tile features the signature bevelled design and strong magnets for secure connections. Designed to grow alongside your child, Connetix can move from simple early builds to increasingly detailed and complex creations as their confidence and skills develop.

Note: Unfortunately, due to the nature of the material it's made from the tiles can sometimes become marked during the manufacturing and packing process. Please know that these imperfections do not impact the playability of the tile and despite their very best efforts it is almost impossible to prevent some slight imperfections from occurring. They also recommended that the tiles be placed on a soft surface, carpet or rug, especially if tall towers are built to protect the tiles.
