Why we love and recommend Connetix:

We love Connetix as it offers amazing quality, many ways to use and your kids will enjoy this for years to come.  Yes there are cheaper magnetic toys available, but we choose to stock the best quality and safest version available.

Connetix is play for the whole family. Children can play  in parallel when they are little and cooperate as they get older. Younger children can make 2D creations and complex 3D structures as they grow. Connetix is also perfect for adding to at future birthdays and Christmases. When Grandparents or other family members ask what to get for your child for a special gift, another pack to add to your family Connetix Collection is the perfect option.

  • All tiles are made using non-toxic ABS plastic that is BPA and Phthalate free, sealed and riveted for extra safety.
  • The unique beveled 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).

FAQs

Where do I start and what pack should I get?
A starter pack or creative pack is always a good place to start. They are the perfect 'tile' packs to begin with. The creative or mega (if the budget will allow) packs are great for families with more than one child that will be playing, as they have enough tiles to share.

If you want to add to your collection there are a number of ways to go! Base plates and rectangle packs are great for creating big structures/buildings as they offer more stability. A ball run pack is a really popular pack as there are so many runs to create! The transport pack and car packs are great for kiddies who love anything to do with cars/vehicles! Any collection you add will be sure to give you hours of fun. Most packs come with ideas of what you can create.

Can you purchase a ball run pack on it's own?
Yes, of course. Please remember there are no standard tiles within this pack. We have found that the ball run pack teamed with one of the 'tile' packs works better as you can create bigger structures for your ball run.

What age do you recommend Connetix for?
Although all tiles are ultrasonically welded and include rivets for extra safety, your safety is paramount and so it is  recommend from 3 years & up.

Connetix is definitely something for the whole family. School aged children, even adults enjoy building with Connetix.

It is a recommendation that younger children may benefit from working with a tile pack to start with. This is so they can get used to working/building with the standard tiles before branching out to the various expansion packs within the range.

Are Connetix compatible with other magnetic tile brands?
Yes, Connetix are compatible with some other leading magnetic tile brands, however Connetix tiles contain stronger magnets than most so other tiles may not hold together as strongly.
