With the summer holidays in full swing, parents might be looking for new ways to keep little ones entertained without breaking the bank. Now, Amazon has a limited-time Prime deal on a magnetic tile set that one shopper praised as ‘hours of fun’.
The Magnetic Tiles STEM Building Toys Set is currently priced at £26.98 – a 21% reduction on its full price of £34.29. It’s obviously a hit with customers – it’s an Amazon’s Choice product, with over 600 bought in the past month alone.
The set comes with 100 pieces of brightly coloured magnetic tiles, meaning there’s plenty of scope to build large structures. With different shapes and sizes to play with, children can build everything from castles and houses to even bigger buildings.

The set is completed with two magnetic cars, with the open-ended design giving children the opportunity to use their imagination while playing. According to the listing, the tiles are made of ‘safe and durable food-grade ABS plastic’, with rounded and sealed edges adding to their safety qualifications.
The tiles are compatible with other leading brands, the listing continues, and can help children develop ‘a range of STEM-related skills, including pattern recognition, and problem-solving, while also providing sensory play experiences’. If shoppers wanted to look around, there are plenty of other options on the market.
For a similarly sized set, Argos has the Magna-Tiles Clear 100 Pieces Set for £95, with the option to get 20% off with the code TOYS20. The listing calls the tiles ‘just the right size for small builders’, with the ability to create rainbows, buildings, rocket ships and more.

The Magnetic Tiles STEM Building Toys Set has clocked up an impressive average 4.7-star rating from over 1,500 reviews on Amazon. One shopper said: “We’re really pleased with this magnetic tile set. The pieces are colourful, sturdy, and easy to connect, making it simple to build a wide range of designs. With 100 tiles included, there’s plenty to spark creativity while also supporting STEM learning. It’s kept us impressed with the quality and has provided hours of fun. A great value toy we’d happily recommend.”
Another said: “These are brilliant and keep my granddaughter (and me!) amused for hours. I bought a very cheap set previously, and the magnets were weak, so anything built would collapse immediately. This set has large string magnets and makes construction fun. The colours are bright and are useful for teaching the young ones to recognise colours. A great buy overall.”

A third added: “A brilliant set. Both my sons love it, endlessly fun, loving the creativity and possibilities.”
However, some shoppers had slight notes to share. One wrote: “We love these and our toddler plays with them regularly. I’d like if the magnets were a bit stronger so builds didn’t fall down so easily, but overall very happy.” Another said: “Need more squares!”
The Magnetic Tiles STEM Building Toys Set is available in a limited-time Prime deal on Amazon.
