Fat Brain Toys Magshuto Mag-Kit Series 1 Quick Circuit: Magnetic Trick Shot System for Ages 6+

The Fat Brain Toys Magshuto Mag-Kit Series 1 Quick Circuit (Yellow and Black) is a magnetic trick shot system that turns any room into a launching arena. Using a rubber band launcher, you shoot magnetic discs called Mag-Pods toward a magnetic target module (Mag-Module). The built-in magnets on the Mag-Pods swivel, so they stick to the target from any angle or direction. It's designed for kids ages 6 and up to develop spatial reasoning, planning, hand-eye coordination, creativity, problem-solving, and concentration. The set includes a launcher, a Mag-Module, three Mag-Pods, and six challenge cards to get you started.

How does the magnetic trick shot work?

Load one of the Mag-Pods into the launcher, pull back the rubber band with your finger, aim, and release. The magnetic disc flies toward the Mag-Module target. The magnets inside the Mag-Pods swivel to grab onto the target from any angle. The trick isn't complete until the disc clicks onto the module. Start with the six included challenge cards, then invent your own stunts using furniture, stairs, or other objects to create slides, flips, and ricochets.

You can collect them all or mix with expansion sets to create larger trick shot courses.

What skills does Magshuto build?
