My kids love to play with the magnetic marble mazes at their pediatrician’s office. I’ve been thinking of getting them some for months now, but for one reason or another, I’ve never bought them. Their birthday is coming in a couple of months, and I finally found the right magnetic game. In fact, I found two of them!
First is the Magnetic USA Map, which I found at SensationalBeginnings.com. This toy costs $39.95 normally, but right now, it’s on sale for $19.95 (note to self, buy this quickly and stash it away for the triplets’ birthday). Not only do kids get to practice eye-hand coordination and manual dexterity with this toy, but they’ll also intuitively learn the 50 states and the map of the United States at the same time. Very cool!
Second, the Magnetic Gumball Counting Game costs $29.95 but is currently on sale for $19.95 (note to self, add this to my shopping list). This game teaches eye-hand coordination and counting at the same time. I love it!
I’ve seen many magnetic marble mazes before, but these are the most educational ones I’ve ever seen. I can’t wait to get them and for my kids to use them!
What do you think of magnetic marble mazes? Have you seen any you (or your kids) like?

The map looks pretty cool. Kind of like a cross between a marble maze and Operation, but without the buzzing. I can’t believe I’ve never seen these before.
Aren’t they so cool! I can’t wait to get them for my triplets’ birthday!
I love it when toys are both educational and fun! These are so great for that- even if they are too little to read like my 4 year old, she’ll still get that picture in her head right from the start!
Exactly, luv edu toys! I ordered them last night for my triplets’ 4th birthday. I think they’re going to love them, and while they play, they’ll subconsciously learn even more just by looking at the toy!
