A pair of category leaders are joining forces.

Next month, Walmart will begin carrying products from MAGNA-TILES, the No. 1 magnetic building sets brand.*

Last week, trucks rolled into MAGNA-TILES’ global headquarters in Bolingbrook, Illinois, where workers loaded them with pallets stacked high with building sets bound for Walmart store shelves across the country.

We’re proud to partner with Walmart, the largest retailer in the world, to bring the joy of Meaningful Play with MAGNA-TILES sets to the millions of U.S. families who visit their stores each week."
Michael Valenta, President of MAGNA-TILES

“Meaningful Play” embodies fun and engaging developmental toys by MAGNA-TILES, fostering child-led imaginative play.

Conceived in a classroom in 1997, MAGNA-TILES sets have become a must-have in the modern toy box, offering great value for money and providing countless hours of screen-free entertainment for kids while being embraced by creative minds of all ages.
