I am always happy to discover toys that not only provide hours of fun, but help to develop skills too.
We have kindly been set a lovely Connetix magnetic tiles building set and they do just that!
Connetix Tiles are super colourful translucent tiles that effortlessly stick together with magnets, allowing your little one to build and create to their heart’s content.
The Connetix Rainbow Starter Pack 60 pc is the perfect entry point into the world of Connetix. With 60 pieces in a variety of shapes and colours, there’s no limit to what your child can construct.
What’s in the Box?
Each pack includes:
6 x Large squares
24 x Small squares

6 x Right angle triangles
6 x Isosceles triangles

Creative Play
One of the first things that struck me about the Rainbow Starter Pack is the quality of the tiles. Made from durable, non-toxic ABS plastic, these tiles are built to last. Believe me, I’ve seen my fair share of flimsy toys that fall apart after a few uses, but Connetix Tiles are in a league of their own. Plus, the smooth edges make them safe for even the littlest hands.
Building options are endless. Kids can make towering castles, intricate mosaics, a spacecraft, houses, farms, zoos, car parks, rockets, puzzles, sorting boxes, coin drops and so much more!
the Rainbow Starter Pack has got them covered. And thanks to the translucent design, their creations come to life with a beautiful kaleidoscope of colours when the light shines through them.
Great STEAM Toy!
Connetix magnetic tiles are a great way to introduce STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) to young minds.
With its unique magnetic design, children are invited to explore the principles of physics as they connect and construct.
Through play, children are naturally drawn into problem-solving mode, devising solutions to overcome challenges and refine their designs.
This is why I love these playsets because learning should be fun!
Aids Development Skills
My youngest is autistic so what neurotypical children may find easy, my little man will struggle with.
These playsets encourage development skills such as –
- Fine motor skills
- Hand-eye coordination
- Problem-solving skills
- Colour recognition
- Shape recognition
- Social development
Keeping Safe
All tiles are made using non-toxic ABS plastic that is BPA and Phthalate-free, sealed and riveted for extra safety.
The unique bevelled design allows Connetix to be strong while offering beautiful clear refractions.
Connetix are compatible with other leading brands.
Recommended Age: 3+ (contains magnets and small parts).
Additional Sets
The fun doesn’t have to end there! There are plenty more packs in the range that are all compatible with each other. There are softer pastel shades, transport packs, ball runs, geometry packs, clear packs and much more!
So if you’re looking for a toy that ticks all the boxes – durability, versatility, educational value, and, most importantly, fun, then Connetix is definitely worth investing in.
These look really fun to play with and the additional sets sound amazing!

Looks like a lot of fun, and so colourful.
My grandson would have a lot of fun with this tile game.
He would Patricia! They are such lovely sets.
We absolutely love these in our house! We bought a second box as everybody wanted to play.
These are so much fun! I remember getting a similar set for my daughters when they were younger, and they loved it. 🙂
I really like these. Such safe, bright, versatile and creative toy tiles. I particularly like the connectivity to other sets. Many happy hours of fun for children.
