Take magnetic tile play on the move with the Connetix Transport Pack. Created especially for kids who love things that go, this clever set combines Connetix magnetic tiles with wheeled bases to turn imaginative builds into vehicles ready for action.
Build trucks, trains, fire engines, ambulances, aircraft, forklifts or invent something completely new. Along the way, children can explore STEAM concepts including magnetism, shape, balance and movement while experimenting with how different designs come together.
Made with the quality and craftsmanship Connetix is known for, each magnetic tile features the signature bevelled design for added durability and beautiful clear refractions. The Transport Pack is designed for open ended play that can evolve as children's ideas, abilities and creations become more complex.

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.
