I work with four kindergarten classes each day, and one of the teachers has Magnetic Poetry Kids Story Maker magnets on a file cabinet in her room where they are accessible to all of her students. These magnets make it enjoyable for the students to create thoughts, poetry, messages and short stories. I love to begin a poem before I leave the class and see how the students will complete it. I enjoyed using the story-starter magnets so much, I bought myself a set and combined it with the Poets magnet set. I am able to use these magnets in grades K-6 to encourage students to write and I use them frequently to challenge myself to extend my own writing.

I'm really disappointed in this product.
The tense of the verbs conflicts with the rest of the sentence structure.
They should use a similar idea as their "In Other Words" collection where you can flip the magnet over... and the tense of the verb changes to match the subject case.
Great conceptual idea, but the finished product is junk.
Back to the drawing board guys!

My son enjoys making crazy sentences with this toy. The different colors make it easy to help him get all the parts of the sentence. I marked less durable because the magnets could be easily snapped in half by a younger child. For an older child it would last for quite a while.
Honest reviews on Magnetic Poetry Kids Story Maker
We have a boy in 2nd grade and a boy in Kindergarten so we bought this set thinking that it would be a good way to help them with sentence creation. They were very excited at first, but like most things the interest waned after awhile. The main problem is that even though the phrases are helpful for making sentences, they also tend to limit creativity a bit. For our son in kindergarten the words are a bit too advanced, but we knew that. However, using colors for the different types grammar is super helpful and a great idea and really helpful! The quality is good, they have strong magnets and don't fall off the fridge even when the door is slammed. The only complaint that I have is that I wish the words weren't quite so tame and boring. I know it is for kids, but my boys are much more interested if they could make some sentences that sound gross or involve explosions, etc.
