Isn't it fabulous to find a toy that occupies your child for a long period of time? When those toys are also good for creativity and do NOT plug in or require batteries it is just layers of icing on an already incredible cake! A friend of mine recently brought some of these magnetic building toys to my kids to keep them busy while I was recovering from the flu. I was delighted that all five of my kids from age 1 to age 10 were kept creatively busy with them for at least an hour. They have returned to them at least once a day for over week since. I must admit I am impressed. These "Magnetix" as they are called, come in all sorts of sets and shapes and sizes widely varying in cost. What building toy has your child liked?
