PicassoTiles 100-Piece Magnetic Tiles vs MAGNA-TILES Classic 100-Piece Set

Both are 100-piece magnetic tile sets for ages 3 and up, and both are strong. The MAGNA-TILES Classic set is the safer default: its MABS plastic is food-grade, BPA-free and phthalate-free, and the brand is the one most preschools and therapists name first. The PicassoTiles PT100 gives you a more varied shape mix, with tall and medium triangles that make roofs and towers easier, and it is rated 5 out of 5 by its owners. Pick MAGNA-TILES for stricter material standards and long-term resale; pick PicassoTiles for more building variety out of the box.

• Choose the PicassoTiles PT100 if you want the widest mix of shapes in a starter set, including tall and medium triangles for roofs and towers, and you plan to add more tiles later.
• Choose the MAGNA-TILES Classic 100 if material safety is your first concern and you want the set most preschools and pediatric therapists reach for.
