Educational Benefits of Magnetic Tiles or Magnatiles
You’ve loved watching your little one learn new skills and enjoy playing with their favorite toys, but now that they’re getting older you’re looking for something new. Finding new educational toys for your children that they’ll love as much as their older toys may seem like a difficult task, but it doesn’t have to be.
Today I’m going to share some of the educational benefits of magnetic tiles or Magnatiles for children. We own a set here and our son loves his Magnatiles Galaxy Rocket Ship from CreateOn. This is such a fun way to encourage creativity and education all with some simple magnetic tiles toy.
Educational Benefits of Magnetic Tiles or Magnatiles
Magnatiles are listed as one of the most must-have gifts to offer children. For us, since our son Josiah King is very much into vehicles he simply can’t get enough of his Magnatiles Galaxy Rocket Ship from CreateOn that allows him to explore his imagination. It’s so much fun to watch him play and have fun all the while reaping some of the below educational benefits of magnetic tile playtime.
Improve Critical Thinking Skills
One of the best educational benefits that come from magnetic tiles is that your child will start to improve their critical thinking skills. As your child works to create a masterpiece, such as the Galaxy Rocket Ship, they’ll need to use their critical thinking skills. Placing the magnetic tiles in the correct spot and making them stick together to create a rocket ship takes patience, time, and critical thinking.
Boosts Fine Motor Skills
As your children work to create their magnetic tiles creation, they’re using their fine motor skills. These skills are necessary for future activities such as gripping a pencil and practicing handwriting. Some children suffer from a delay or lack of fine motor skills. Using toys like Magnatiles to boost your child’s fine motor skills will help ease the anxiety and stress of using their fine motor skills later in life.
Color Recognition
Lastly, one of the amazing educational benefits of magnetic tiles is that it can help younger children with color recognition. Magnatiles come in all sorts of shapes and sizes as well as patterns like the Galaxy Rocket Ship to encourage children to start recognizing colors without the pressure of flashcards or a parent trying to force color recognition in an educational setting.
These are just some of the educational benefits of magnetic tiles or Magnatiles that your children will experience when you opt to purchase magnetic tiles for your little one. Personally, we are looking into adding their ABC Schoolhouse and 123 School Bus to our collection. Make sure to check out CreateOn to see their wonderful collection of Magnetic Tiles or Magna-Tiles. Their sets makes a great addition to any at-home learning resource, or even as gifts!
