Encouraging confident, creative, resilient children with Connetix.
With the rapid change in technology, we have already seen a rise in careers that didn’t exist 10 years ago. So, it doesn’t come as a surprise that parents and educators around the globe are searching for ways to prepare children to live in a world we cannot yet foresee. STEAM is the buzzword on everybody’s lips, so is it the answer?
STEAM is an educational approach that integrates the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics through hands-on exploration. Valued for promoting 21st-century skills, this method is increasingly gaining popularity with parents, educators, and health experts alike as they search to foster the natural love of learning in children.
Connetix magnetic tiles are the perfect open-ended, STEAM toy.
Seeking to champion learning through play, the team at Connetix identified key features magnetic tiles need to maximize functionality and support open-ended STEAM play.
Featuring strong magnets and exclusively designed pieces, the innovative and aesthetically appealing design of Connetix tiles spark imagination and creativity. Manufactured with high-quality, food-grade plastic and the inclusion of extra rivets and ultrasonic welding, Connetix tiles are internationally safety rated, ensuring they are strong and safe for little hands.
The signature Connetix bevel offers a stronger, clearer surface, while simultaneously creating a lighter tile that is free from internal and external bracing. It is an attribute that enables children to build bigger, experience clearer refractions, enjoy looking through tiles without obstruction, and have a smoother surface to write or create on. This innovation of design is yet to be matched in terms of aesthetics and functionality for both open-ended and STEAM play.
As a high-quality, open-ended toy, Connetix provides a gateway to a magical world of learning through PLAY where children can celebrate their own creativity and imagination. With no rules, restrictions, or instructions, Connetix intuitively meets the needs of each user, allowing children to experience STEAM learning in a way that meets their current abilities and curiosities. Immersing themselves in Connetix play, they inadvertently explore core concepts including cause and effect, teamwork, problem-solving, and perseverance to understand complex notions such as gravity, engineering, magnetism, color, shape, design, motion, plus so much more.
To further facilitate the play value of their open-ended STEAM products, the Connetix team provides inspiration across its social platforms, and education through expert blogs, along with free educational resources and tutorials. The highly responsive and invested customer service team passionately support its audience to engage in ongoing STEAM play and learning with Connetix.
Connetix are more than just magnetic tiles, they inspire creativity, imagination, curiosity, cognitive development, and social-emotional learning (SEL) all through play – effortlessly connecting learning and fun.
