Learn and Grow with Magnetic Tiles

We are so excited to offer you a new and completely different range of open-ended toys and learning resources: Magnetic TilesWith this blog post we would like to give you some insights why we have decided to add Magnetic Tiles to our online store. 

Oskar's Wooden Ark has two fantastic captains and while you don't get to see Captain Thuy very often, because she does a lot of work behind the scenes, she's the one who has madly fallen in love with magnetic tiles and has been the driving force behind the addition of magnetic tiles to Oskar's Wooden Ark. 

"After much discussion, a few restless nights and rolling the idea around in our heads, we have finally made the leap to stock Magnetic Tiles here at Oskar’s Wooden Ark. It wasn’t an easy decision to say the least, to have a range which is so very different to our existing products but we eventually said YES because of one reason and one reason only. The Learn & Grow Magnetic Tiles are just too good of a toy! Not only is it fun, open-ended and educational but it is also good value, long lasting and enjoyed by all ages. What more could you ask for in a toy?"

The benefits of Magnetic Tiles

Magnetic tiles have many developmental and educational benefits. They foster fine motor skills, independent play, problem solving, language skills, persistence and perseverance as well as STEM skills. STEM is an approach to development and learning that combines the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics. Building and creating with magnetic tiles allows children to be imaginative and creative while improving hand-eye coordination and spatial awareness. Magnetic Tiles are an open-ended toy which means they can be played with and explored in many different ways. They aren't bound to one form of play. Your children are in charge and they decide how to play with them. Magnetic tiles can be used to build structures like castles, car ramps, ball runs, beds for dolls, etc and can add more fun to educational activities such as colour sorting, literacy and numeracy.

Learn & Grow Magnetic Tiles

At Oskar's Wooden Ark we believe in the magic of open-ended toys and how it allows children to create their own world of play and how it helps children learn in a playful way. We are super excited to stock this beautiful open-ended toy range and to support another Australian business. Oskar and Klara have been playing with magnetic tiles non-stop since Christmas and as you all know we are huge ball run fans so when we saw the Learn & Grow Ball Run Set, we knew we had to add magnetic tiles to our online store.⁠ 

Magnetic tiles and the magnetic ball run expansion are Learn & Grow Toys’ first products which have been created with lots of love and experience and under close supervision of the production process making sure children and parents get to play and learn with a high quality product. 

Learn & Grow Toys was founded by Brianna, her brother Joshua and their father Allan in 2020. Their love for quality open-ended toys and their aim to create a wide range of beautiful and educational products brought them together. Brianna, Joshua and Allan all have different strengths and skill sets which allow them to focus on different parts of this new and exciting business.

Safety & Compatibility

Before we add a new toy range to our store, it has to tick several boxes and one of the biggest boxes it has to tick is the safety box. We do not only want children and parents to feel safe when they play with our toys, we also want them to be safe.
The magnets inside the Learn & Grow Magnetic Tiles are strong which allows your children to build tall structures and buildings that do not collapse easily. The production process of the Learn & Grow Magnetic Tiles includes ultrasonic welding and the insertion of rivets which secure the magnets safely inside the magnetic tiles. The internal structure also enhances the stability of the magnetic tiles and decreases the chance of breakages. Learn & Grow Magnetic Tiles are made from non-toxic ABS plastic that is BPA and phthalate-free and incredibly durable. These vividly coloured magnetic tiles have a beautiful glass-like finish and the little raised lip around the outside makes them less likely to be scratched.

All our Learn & Grow Magnetic Tiles sets work together and are compatible with all major brands: Picasso Tiles, Connetix Tiles, Magna-Tiles and others magnetic tiles in the same size and with magnets in the same spot.
