Hey everyone! If you’ve ever been stuck on a four-hour flight or a long road trip with a restless toddler, you know exactly how stressful it can be. I’ve tried everything from coloring books to downloaded movies, but nothing keeps my little ones engaged quite like tactile play. That’s why I’m so excited to share my latest find: the Magnetic Blocks Kids Travel Toys with Portable Metal Tin.
I recently added these to our "travel bag," and they have been an absolute game-changer. Here is why I think every parent needs a set of these Montessori-inspired building blocks.
Most magnetic blocks end up scattered under airplane seats or lost in the crevices of the car. What makes this set different is the portable metal tin. Not only does it keep the blocks organized, but the tin actually doubles as a building base! Since the blocks are magnetic, they stick right to the container, which prevents them from sliding off the tray table during turbulence or sharp turns.
As an advocate for STEM learning, I love that these aren't just mindless toys. These blocks encourage:
We all love a quiet flight, but I try to limit screen time where I can. These blocks provide that "deep play" experience where kids get into a flow state. The magnets have just the right amount of strength—satisfying to click together, but easy enough for a three-year-old to pull apart.
If you are looking for a durable, compact, and educational toy that won't take up half your carry-on, this is it. It’s a 10/10 for me, especially for the price point. Whether you're heading to Grandma's house or just need something to keep them busy at a restaurant, these magnetic blocks are a must-have.
Pro Tip: Keep them hidden until you are actually on the plane or in the car—the "novelty factor" will buy you even more quiet time!
