Magnatiles - Is 2 too young?

[jgenie]

Just realized the box is labeled 3+. This is DS' big Christmas gift - is he too young? TIA

No. We got them when the kids were 3.5 and 18 months. DD took to them right away at 18 months and still loves them. DS2 has started playing with them and he's 17 months. Age 2 will be fine.

My son got them when my daughter was 15 months old. She started really playing with them around 18-20 months and now at age 2 loves them. DS is almost 5 and loves them too. They were money well spent for us!

DS was about 2.5 when he got them and loved them right from the start!

We got ours when DD had just turned 2 and she jumped into playing with them right away. In a few months she was building big structures like her brother.

They're fine. They aren't labeled 3+ because of any choking hazard, according to the owner. They just don't expect kids under 3 to enjoy them as much.

That said, my 15mo twins love it when big brother pulls them out!

Our 2 year 4 month old daughter just got some for Christmas and she's been playing with them every day. They look too big to be choking hazards.

My 14 month old loves playing with his brother's set. He can't build structures yet. He just makes one dimensional shapes.
