Stick & build for young and old

For many parents, the holiday starts with planning, fitting and measuring. Because how do you get as much as possible. After all, when the children are busy, parents have their well-deserved rest. Especially if you have children of different ages, it can be a challenge to take enough for each child to keep them busy even in bad weather.
Toys42hands has a great many items in its assortment that take up little space and guarantee hours of fun. In any case, every child is enthusiastic when new toys or craft materials appear.
Stick & build is highly recommended for all ages from about 3 years old.

It started with us as an original gift from the grandchildren to their grandfather.

Grandpa loves technology and crafting and thoroughly enjoyed experimenting with this, also for him, new material. The most beautiful creations came from his hands.

Our youngest of almost three also managed, after a bit of copying, to attach the rods to a circle, which soon created a kind of 2D flower or sun. Together with our other daughter they built a long string from one side of the room to the other. Then both try to make a long stick to the ceiling. What enthusiasm and fun those two have!


We had the magisticks “staying” at our home for the May holiday. It was a success again. The girls were entertained with it for a long time and it was also very popular with friends.


The material can withstand a knock and cleaning is also a breeze. So ideal toys for years of fun at grandpa and grandma's, ideal for camping and light and compact (in a plastic bag) to take with you in your suitcase or weekend bag.
