Advice from the MuseumTour expert:
Working with magnets increases hand-eye coordination and supports mathmatical and problem solving skills. These magnetic trucks will fascinate children for hours, and can be used for either independent or cooperative play. Their simplicity and bright colors make them captivating for very young children, but they are challenging and multi-dimensional enough to be interesting for older children as well. Children will use their imaginations to create a variety of vehicles while simultaniously developing their fine-motor skills. The parts are easy to manipulate, which reduces frustration and builds confidence.
