My family and I are a little Connetix crazy and I get asked a lot - is it really worth the hype?
I love this question because I get to deep dive into why we love Connetix!
Let's start with what is Connetix?
Connetix Tiles are plastic tiles with magnets that allow them to stick together to create shapes and objects. The Connetix brand is known for it's quality and safety with vibrant colours and strong magnets. We've tried cheaper versions and the Connetix brand is far superior!
And now the fun part, why do children and parents love it so much?
🌈 Connetix promotes open ended play, what that means is it has no limitations, it's up to the child to use their imagination and the options are endless. Each pack comes with some great suggestions on how to use the tiles and if you do a search on any social media platform you can get a heap of inspo as well!
👨👩👧👦 We find Connetix is something parents, grandparents and older siblings love playing with and watching the child's imagination take off fuels your own creativity.
🪴 Connetix will grow with your child, the recommended age is 3+ and families have enjoyed their Connetix collections for years! (and years and years)
So now you want Connetix, but which pack should I buy?
🚀 A good place to start is with a Starter Pack, Creative Pack or Mega Pack then when you're ready look into an Expansion Pack, Car Pack or Transport Pack dependant on your child's interests and as your child gets older you can look into the Ball Run Packs or the Roads Creative Pack which are a fave with older kids (and Dads!).
The beauty of Connetix is the original Starter Pack will still get used as you add on, as their ability develops so will their creations.
One of the common remarks we hear about Connetix is that it is money well spent and they wish they had purchased it sooner!
