About this gift
A compact magnetic storytelling set with 30 dinosaur-shaped magnets - featuring dinosaurs, trees and a volcano - and a foldable scenic backdrop for children to place them on and create their own prehistoric scenes and stories. Unlike the Magnetibook format, Magnetistories are specifically designed for open-ended narrative play rather than template following. Perfect for ages 3-6 and compatible with other Magnetistories and Magnetibook sets.
Why we chose it
Because the Magnetistories format is beautifully designed for the age before template-following makes sense - children simply place the character magnets on the backdrop and tell their own stories. The dinosaur-shaped magnets are chunky and satisfying to hold, and the volcanic backdrop creates an immediate world to play in.
When to give it
A perfect birthday or Christmas gift for ages 3-6 who loves dinosaurs. Works brilliantly paired with the Dinosaurs Magnetibook for a larger set. A wonderful and affordable godparent or grandparent gift for a younger child.
