Geomag manages to do something that a lot of toy manufacturers struggle to do these days. They are able to combine play and learning at such a level that your children probably don’t even realise they’re learning! The Supercolor Panels 52 piece set by Geomag is a wonderful magnetic construction set using just magnets, rods, and panels that provide limitless possibilities.

The kit is suitable for age 5-99, so don’t think that it will just be the little ones that get joy of out this! The Supercolor Panels kit is very simple to use. Connect the plastic rods with magnets and the plastic panels can clip inside the rods and magnets to reinforce or simply decorate them. Your imagination is then left to run wild, as there are so many different varieties of 2D and 3D models that you can create. Any children playing with this Geomag set will certainly be honing their fine motor skills and possibly become a construction worker or even an architect when they grow up. Once you have finished playing with set, there are two storage boxes especially for the rods and magnet spheres, and for the panels, meaning there is no excuse to leave a mess all over the table or floor!

Another key feature of the Geomag Supercolor Panels set is that whole kit is made from 100% recycled plastics, including the two storage boxes! The packaging of the kit is also made from 61% recycled materials. Rightly so, Geomag are very proud of their environmental ethos. The classic range of games, that the Supercolor Panels kit is a part of, are all made of 100% recycled plastics. A lot of their other products are also recycled, and I am sure their entire product line will be entirely eco-friendly in the near future.

Overall, this is lovely toy from Geomag’s classic collection. If you are conscious about your child’s playtime being fun as well as being mentally productive, then the Supercolor Panels or any other game from Geomag’s range could be suitable for them. Plus, your environmentalist concerns can be put at ease knowing Geomag’s commitment to using recycled materials and making their production processes use 100% renewable energy!
