Category Description for Geomag Magnetic Building Sets
We've all built stuff with blocks, LEGOS®, and other connecting bits and pieces. So why not build with magnets? Geomags are the perfect, high-quality magnetic building sets to engage creative minds. Each set includes strong 6cm long magnetic rods encased in plastic as well as small (1.3cm dia.) non-magnetic steel balls. The rods can be boldly-colored or grey, depending on the set (see individual descriptions below), and some also include plastic panels (which clip in between the rods), wheels, and other accessories. Suggested structures and shapes to build are included in every kit. These quality sets are made in Switzerland. With these simple magnets, the possibilities (and science discoveries!) are endless and amazing.
Category Description for Geosmart Construction Sets
This great new magnetic building system has a patented safety system, so builders ages 5 and up can enjoy them. Magnets are inside a plastic housing and are locked in with clamps, so no fears with younger children. The educational set can be used to build anything you can imagine, and other sets contain brightly colored pieces to build specific constructions - squares, diamonds, triangles, and trapezoids are all in the 2 to 3 inch range. Instructions are included in some of the more complex building sets; you can also request step-by-step illustrated building instructions at the company's website: geosmart.eu. Combine them all together to build even bigger structures!
