PicassoTiles Clear Transparent Magnetic Tile Expansion Set (12-Piece) STEM Building Toy for Kids Age 3+
The PicassoTiles Clear Transparent Magnetic Tile Expansion Set (PTE13) adds 12 see-through magnetic tiles to any full-sized PicassoTiles collection. These transparent ABS plastic blocks let children build light-catching structures while exploring geometry, magnetism, and balance. Designed for ages 3 and up, the set supports STEM learning through hands-on play and pairs with existing sets for larger constructions.
What makes these transparent tiles different?
Unlike solid-color blocks, the clear design lets light pass through, creating bright effects when building near windows or with flashlights. Kids can stack, connect, and angle the tiles to form towers, houses, or abstract shapes. The transparency adds a visual layer that encourages experimentation with light and shadow.
Building skills through play
Each tile clicks together with reinforced magnets, making it easy for small hands to connect pieces and build upward. As children create, they practice fine motor control, spatial reasoning, and problem-solving. Because the tiles are open-ended, there is no single right way to build—every session can be different. This kind of play supports creativity and concentration without screens.
Safety and materials
The tiles are made from BPA-free, lead-free, non-toxic ABS plastic with smooth rounded edges. They meet US toy safety standards. The set includes a small parts warning: keep away from children under 3 and seek immediate medical help if parts are swallowed or inhaled.
Compatibility with existing PicassoTiles sets
This expansion pack works with all full-sized PicassoTiles magnetic building sets. You can mix clear tiles with colored or themed sets to build larger, more complex structures. The magnets are strong enough to hold creations together during play.
