Magna-Tiles are hands down one of the best toys we own. The quality is excellent. Sturdy pieces that don’t crack or lose their magnet strength. My kids can play for ages building towers, houses, animals, whatever they imagine. I love that it encourages creativity, problem-solving, and quiet independent play (a lifesaver!). They work well with other magnetic tile brands and are easy to clean up and sandra s · influenster.com

We were given spike in exchange for an honest review, and immediately upon opening spike my son took an interest, he was quickly able to figure out how to hold the spikes and how to put them into the hedgehog, And as he's played with it more and more each day he's getting better at the fine motor skills necessary to properly place the spikes! I was actually surprised at how much he loved it, It ke Jaydank · learningresources.com
