Connetix Tiles Rainbow 24 Piece Mini Pack

To be fair, while the 24 Piece Mini Pack is a cracking way to get a feel for the Connetix difference, most Aussie mums find it works best as a "taster" set or a travel pack for the pram. If you want to keep a busy threenager occupied without them getting frustrated, you’ll eventually want to scale up to a Creative Pack to build those taller towers that don’t fall over when the cat walks past. It’s perfect for taking to a cafe to keep little hands busy while you enjoy a flat white.

You can rest easy, mate. Connetix tiles are built tough with ultrasonic welding and, crucially, metal rivets that lock the magnets in place. Unlike some cheapies you’ll find on random sites, these meet the strict AS/NZS ISO 8124 Australian safety standards. Even if the tiles take a bit of a tumble on your floorboards, the magnets stay put inside the non-toxic, BPA-free ABS plastic.

Every pack includes an Inspiration Book to help you kick things off. It’s a great way to offset the "what do I do now?" moment. You can start with simple 2D shapes on the carpet and move to 3D rockets or houses as the kids get more confident. If you’re feeling extra creative, check out our range of Learning Towers to see how these tiles can be used for "vertical play" on the fridge!

Spot on! Connetix is 100% compatible with other leading brands like Magna-Tiles. However, many parents notice that Connetix has a bit more "oomph" in the magnet department, which helps when you’re building bigger. Just keep in mind that mixing brands can sometimes cause a tiny bit of misalignment in very tall towers because the internal magnets might be positioned slightly differently.

We dispatch same-day from our Melbourne warehouse for orders before 10am (T&Cs apply). For our mates in remote or regional areas, you're looking at about 7-10 business days for standard delivery. If you’re in a rush for a birthday, our Express option usually lands in 5-7 business days.

While they’re super tempting, the official recommendation is for ages 3+ due to the magnets and small parts. That said, many Aussie parents introduce them around 2 years old under close supervision for color sorting and basic stacking. It’s a gift that grows with the child, so you definitely get more bang for your buck over the years compared to a toy they’ll outgrow in a month.

Connetix features a unique beveled design that actually helps protect the face of the tile from those inevitable scratches. They’ll still get a bit of "love" over years of play, but they hold their clarity much better than flat-faced alternatives. A quick wipe with a damp cloth keeps them looking schmick.

We offer a Best Price Guarantee! If you find a lower price from another Aussie retailer, give us a buzz on Live Chat. Plus, if your total order is over $99, you’ll score free AU shipping (Excl. heavy items; T&Cs apply), which helps save some dollarydoos.
