Our take on the PicassoTiles Magnetic Tiles Building Blocks STEM Toy Set for Kids Ages 3

The PicassoTiles 42-piece magnetic tile set is an open-ended building toy: plastic tiles with magnets along the edges snap together into flat patterns and 3D structures. The mix of shapes lets kids build houses, towers and shapes without instructions. It is an add-on set, so it works best alongside an existing tile collection. The latest price is $39.99 at Best Buy as of November 3.

Questions and answers

Is 42 pieces enough to start with?
It is enough for small builds and patterns, but most families want 100 or more pieces for houses and towers. Buy it as an add-on to a set you already own, or plan to add a second set.
Does it work with Magna-Tiles and other brands?
Yes. The tiles are standard size and the brand says they are compatible with most magnetic tile brands, including Magna-Tiles. Shapes and colors may differ slightly between brands.
What age is it for?
The set is aimed at ages 3 and up. Tiles contain small magnets, so keep them away from kids who still mouth toys, and check tiles for cracks.
Is it worth the price?
At $39.99 at Best Buy as of November 3, it is in line with other 40-piece magnetic tile sets. The value is better if you already own tiles and want more shapes rather than a first set.
When is it cheapest?
Magnetic tile sets usually drop during Black Friday, back-to-school and pre-holiday sales. Watch the price history and buy when it falls below its recent range.
What is in the box?
The box has 42 magnetic tiles in a mix of shapes. It does not include a storage bin or a build guide.
