The most played with toy out of everything my kids received for Christmas this year has been these Magnatiles. My sister searched wide and far and they have been well worth her efforts. Multiple times a day my kids pull these amazing tiles out and build all sorts of creations with them. My very favorite times are when they work together to build hotels, castles, or magnificent towers all on their own. Then they come and find me to show off their latest creation.
I am in awe at their amazing creations. They usually have little people or action figures inside, and sometimes they purposely leave opening to use as doors.
Once they build a giant hotel with a breakfast area, pool area, and a tower for the rooms. They covered it with their little "wonders of the world" statues and it looked like something out of Vegas. Too bad Cordy came along and knocked it down before I could get a picture.
Cordy also likes to play with the Magnatiles, as long as she can be Godzilla. Sometimes we have to designate a time for her to have a turn, and everyone who wants to build must do so with the understanding that she is allowed to knock it down at any time. Other times I let the kids take them into a room and shut the door to keep Cordy out. We try to make sure everyone gets a turn.
Thank you, Erin and Ryan,
for the hours and hours of entertainment provided by this fabulous toy.
You know it's a good toy when even the parents pull them out to play after the kids go to bed. :-)

I read been told that Magnatiles will be available again in March. They are made in Thailand and the flooding there shut down production. That's why they are so impossible to find. They are my favorite toy. :-)
What an awesome tower! Erin, is this a toy that would be even better with two sets?
These look fantastic! Isaac has recently gotten into Legos, do you think he would enjoy these?
Sara, I think they would LOVE these. They are my favorite toy!
I have had these since Austin was about 3 and they are still one of the most played with toys at my house! In fact we loved them so much that we ended up by a second set a few months later.
