Freedom To Explore

I'm a nanny and nursery teacher, and have had a couple of different sets of Connetix which I've been trying out for the last couple of years. Without exception, every single child I've looked after (age 2 to 12) has been fascinated by the Connetix tiles and will play contentedly with them, endlessly creating castles, patterns, all kinds of constructions. They are so simple, so open-ended and versatile, you can make anything with them! I chose Connetix after quite a lot of research into different brands of tiles, because they have the strongest magnets and they just look the nicest - they don't have any bars inside them or anything, they're just clear. They are also really strong children have often kneeled on them or walked on them and they never get damaged or broken. The youngest children love peeping through them to see the world in different colours and the older children (by the time they're two and a half to three onwards) start building after I've sat with them a few times showing them what to do. They soon catch on and are soon hooked on creating the most amazing things. We needed another pack because two is never enough, even for only one child! They just want to go on and on and on creating - so who am I to stop them?!

We had generic magnetic tiles before and decided to do a Connetix set for Christmas. The quality is amazing!

We’ve been having so much fun and already planning to add another set and ballrun to it.

Absolutely love my retro looking jacket. It’s warm, fits well and looks great on. Even my mum tried to steal it!
I love the 80s vibe it gives off :)
Would definitely order again.

Very warm, looks fantastic.

It’s absolutely enormous!! Incredibly comfortable even when pretty full it doesn’t feel heavy. Only addition I’d make is having water bottle pockets on the sides. But these can easily be clipped on

I love these shoes, fit my son perfectly. I’ve wanted some of these barefoot trainers for a long while, little goat gruff was the best price for them. He usually has Clark’s shoes which are great but I wanted something with more flexibility for a boy who loves being barefoot. They are a more expensive shoe but well worth the money, they was delivered super quick always have great customer service from here

Love these fit all sorts. For relaxing mandala making to stepping in as traffic cones in small world play. A very versatile toy for all ages

We’ve used them as sorting bowls for some toy figures, they look great in the play room. I was however disappointed in how small they actually are!

These are great as stand alone toys or with the sorting tree. Open ended play has meant we’ve sorted, spun, stacked and used as stands for our boing balls

My daughter loves sorting in colours and hanging while my son loves taking them off and mixing them around great fun for all ages

Superb quality as you’d expect from Patagonia. Good fit (52cm head) with lots of growing room adjustment. Nice quick shipping too!

These are a really good addition to our LSP. My son loves making a ball run with them. Lovely colours

Beautiful toy and ornament when not in use

Gorgeous set and variety of shapes, colours and sizes. Perfect for little hands and open ended play.

I’d wanted these rainbow eggs for our Grapat collection for ages and purchased ready for Easter. They’re a perfect alternative to chocolate eggs for a garden egg hunt for my little ones and can be used year after year as well as being played with for counting, colour matching, mandala making etc during the year too. The colours are bright and the quality brilliant.
