Discount Geomag Kids Color - 216 pieces

Customer Ratings:

Ok, so I (male adult, 40+) bought this Geomag set with the idea to play with it one or two evenings, and give to my nephew. No way that is going to happen. I have to buy a new set for m nephew, and I am tempted to buy a second set for myself along with it. This is so much fun to experiment with. the set arrived yesterday, and I have played with it just one evening. Like anyone else, you start with a tetrahedron, then built other Platonic solids such as an icosahedron, to end up with a buckyball. It is wonderful to experience a feeble structure snap together in a stiff structure with a beautiful geometric structure. You can do much more than building such well-known structures. Simple geometric shapes I didn't know even existed emerge naturally. I just wish this would have existed when I was a kid. My advise: don't buy a small set, you inevitably end up upgrading. To give you an idea: this largest set with 120 magnet bars is just enough to build a Buckyball (90 edges) and an icosahedron (30 edges). have fun!

My kids play with these all the time and build very creative things. My younger kids and my teenagers play with them alike.

Best Deals for Geomag Kids Color - 216 pieces

I gave this to my two grandsons as a birthday gift recently. They are three and five years old. They both love to create and build, so their mother suggested this toy, as they are always playing with a set like this at their pre-school when she picks them up. I am ordering panels to go along with the set for Christmas. I would highly recommend buying as large a set as possible, as they sometimes want to admire their creation for awhile as they create something else. Also, a larger set is better when two children are using it at the same time.

Honest reviews on Geomag Kids Color - 216 pieces

This product was purchased for an adult as a whimsical Christmas gift. I decided on Geomag instead of Magnetix because of the many reviews which indicated that Geomag made a better quality product. The kit I received has 3 colors: Dark Blue, Green, and Metallic Aqua. The colored bars are packaged in multiples of 12 or 24 in styrofoam flat containers each with a complement of steel balls. Each bar is 58mm (2.25").

The product is well made.

The magnets are very strong.

The parts look good and feel good to the touch.

The $50 price for the 216-pc kit was very good compared to other kits.

The product comes with a color instruction sheet and gives you some examples of what you can build. It's engaging and it makes you focus. It's a toy but also a teaching tool. I think those children who can sit down and play quietly would love this product. For those who can't, it could be an interesting experiment. We devised a game in which we build something sturdy and then start to remove pieces one-by-one until the integrity is compromised (think Jenga). I agree with other reviewers that the product is addictive and I wish I had more pieces even though 216 is quite a few.

It's a great educational toy, to help kids understand magnetism but also have a lot of fun creating new figures with it. The limit is your imagination!!
