Magnets that attract your imagination
Magination Toolset is a magnetic kit that unlocks the potential of your mind with the power of magnets.
This set of magnets empowers you to open-endedly explore magnetic properties thanks to a massive 39-piece (Medium) or 52-piece (Large) collection. Between the disc magnets, bar magnets, and curved magnets, you'll have more than enough magnetic material to make scientific inquiries, play your favorite games in a new way, and build entirely unique creations.
Magnetic marvels
Each of the magnetic pieces in the Magination Toolset includes at least one rare earth magnet encased in a colorful shell. The disc magnets have one neodymium disc inside, the bar shapes hold two disc magnets, and the curved shapes contain three magnetic coins. Use their unique polarities to stack them together, chain them along, or repel them away.
Hovering hockey
Thanks to the repelling nature of magnets and the low friction of Magination magnets on smooth surfaces, you can set up your own air hockey game right on your coffee table. Just drop the puck and skate to victory! Noisy fans NOT required.
Hole in fun
Set up your own golf course and play to see if you can make it to the hole in the fewest strokes. Watch out for the water hazard!
Polar placement
Playing with Magination certainly isn't limited to recontextualizing familiar games to magnetic tabletop play.
Create your own skill game by making a border and seeing how many magnetic discs you can add to the arena before it all falls apart. Things get tense as the space between each magnet shrinks and the board gets crowded, so use soft hands and place carefully!
Polar bounce pass
For another fun tabletop game, make a target and bounce the discs at it. For each one that sticks, award yourself a point!
Magnetic mesmerization
Magination isn't just about creating games. It's also about creating fascinating floating demonstrations. When you get your hands on the Magination Toolkit, unleash your imagination and see what you can discover!
