Magnetic Construction Set - 88 pieces

The Magnetic Construction Set: 88 Pieces is an engaging, open-ended learning resource designed to inspire creativity, problem solving and hands-on exploration in early years settings. Featuring a variety of colourful plastic rods and sturdy metal balls, this magnetic set supports a range of construction possibilities, from simple structures to more complex designs.

Children are naturally drawn to magnets, and this set encourages exploration of shape, geometry and magnetic polarity in a fun and tactile way. Magnetic pieces are easy to connect, making it ideal for younger learners, and the self-correcting nature of magnets helps children experiment with different combinations confidently. Supplied in a durable plastic storage container, this set is ideal for classroom use and easy to pack away.
