Ages 3+
Add length, strength and new building possibilities to magnetic tile play with the Connetix Rainbow Rectangle Pack. Featuring 18 magnetic rectangles in six vibrant rainbow colours, this expansion pack makes it easier for children to create longer, taller and more structurally ambitious builds.
Each rectangle has been cleverly designed to match the length of two, three or four standard Connetix squares connected together. This gives children larger building pieces to span gaps, create strong foundations and add extra stability without needing to connect multiple square tiles.
From long roads and racing ramps to car parks, towers, houses, rockets and castle balconies, the three rectangle sizes open up plenty of new ways to build. They are also ideal for supporting larger ball runs and experimenting with more complex structures, including domes that explore light, colour and refraction.
Made with the strong magnets, signature bevelled design and quality craftsmanship Connetix is known for, the Rainbow Rectangle Pack is an open ended magnetic tile expansion designed to grow with children as their ideas, skills and builds 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.
