"I have found these toys to be an excellent therapeutic tool that children are consistently excited to use. They provide rich opportunities to target a wide range of developmental skills across different clients. Children experience a sense of agency and creativity as they bring their ideas to life, moving from small building blocks to larger, meaningful structures. The magnetic properties offer additional proprioceptive input and naturally support bilateral integration as children manipulate, connect, and stabilize the pieces. Building also provides opportunities to work on force modulation and body awareness, as children learn how to use "just right" pressure to keep their creations standing. Beyond the sensory-motor benefits, these toys inspire imaginative play, offering endless possibilities for collaborative storytelling, problem-solving, and flexible thinking. Overall, they are a versatile and engaging resource that supports both therapeutic goals and joyful, child-led play."
The Power of STEAM & Play in Museums and Libraries
Superspace was made for the kind of learning that happens outside the classroom. In museums, children's libraries, science centers, and public library branches, the goal is engagement, curiosity, and the kind of hands-on discovery that brings people back.
Its life-sized magnetic panels set up in minutes, require no instructions, and invite every visitor, regardless of age or ability, to build, explore, and imagine together.
Whether you're designing a permanent interactive installation, running a structured STEAM program, or setting out an open-ended drop-in station, Superspace creates the immersive, memorable experience that defines great informal learning. Recommended by educators, OTs, and program directors across the country, it scales from toddler drop-in to family engineering challenge without changing a single panel.

Why Educators & Families Love Superspace
"Superpace has been a game changer in our outpatient clinic. We have children that need adventure but limited stimuli for their environment. The ability to make something so big and later "click click click" it down to a small stackable set and put away with ease is my favorite thing about Superspace. We can turn our therapeutic space from a boat, or a train, or a tunnel, or a rocket in 10 minutes and then back to a blank canvas. We use it for problem solving, executive function, visual- spatial skills, 2-3 step planning, imaginative play, basic concepts, training attention, language immersion.... the therapeutic ways we use these tiles are endless. I also appreciate that I can use them with my 2 year old's and 12 year olds. There are not many therapy materials that have that versatility. It is highly recommended by our physical therapist, occupational therapists, and speech therapists."

"In play therapy, we give kids the opportunity to navigate big emotions through their first language - play! Superspace gives kids the ability to create anything they need in that moment, whether it's a cozy place to hide, a doctor's office to run, or a castle to defend. "My absolutely favorite part about these tiles is the ability it gives for kids to knock down or destroy in a contained and safe way - something that very few toys offer. This can be so therapeutic for littles navigating big feelings and, when they're ready, they can start to rebuild."

"Integrating Superspace into my Speech Therapy practice has been truly transformative! It offers my clients the perfect platform to engage in imaginative exploration, while simultaneously addressing their sensory needs such as pushing, lifting, and pulling, or offering them a safe and cozy place to relax. Superspace has helped foster functional language and communication through meaningful play!"

"Our social skills group was a HUGE success thanks to Superspace! It worked great for our 3 year olds and our Pre-K and kinders. So much great language, motor skills, flexible thinking, impulse control, collaboration, sequencing, working memory."

"These are always always in use! There's no point putting them away because the next client is going to get them straight back out, they are so much fun and offer endless opportunities for super sized construction play."

"Superspace is used every day in our preschool room. The resource has empowered the children's imagination and they have loved building with it. They have flown to the moon and beyond, they have been pirates on the wild seas as well as princesses in castles and towers. Superspace aligns so well with our ethos because it is open-ended, and can be used however the children want to. Which is exactly the kind of resource we love to use. Today two little girls put all the triangles together and made 'the world's biggest pizza' decorating the shapes with shells, acorns etc (amazing imagination at work)."
"I bought these from a recommendation from another library director and it has been a big hit so far! I think it's been helping with more imaginative play —kids need more help nowadays with using their imagination. There are too many screens and scheduled activities, and our free play program and the Superspace products give them an opportunity to imagine! It builds divergent thinking which is important for problem solving!"
"The children really work well together when building with the pieces. They need to problem-solve, explain their thoughts, and work/play carefully to keep the creations together. The children are very creative with what they build and have asked for additional pieces to extend their work. Regular magnatiles have always been a favorite among our preschool and kindergarten children and these larger-scale Superspace tiles have allowed them to recreate and extend their ideas into a larger setting."
"Superspace has proved to be a HUGE success for both prime and specific area team work, imagination and creativity, creating imagination through play for ALL ages. We look for resources that are well built, long lasting and provide an invitation to play. I had been eyeing up Superspace for some time and took the plunge in investing, which I am glad we did. It's areal a real open ended resource for children ALL ages."
"Play is the center of our curriculum. We have activities that engage and challenge each child teaching them communication, conflict resolution and playfulness. These giant "magnatiles" offer children a chance to create and cooperate. Children usually will need to work together to build structures, which strengthens their communication skills. We look for toys that are sturdy and offer open-ended play. It looked like it would offer fun imaginative play for kids and adults alike. From the moment we opened the boxes we let the kids figure out what they were, and how they worked, and they have been working together and independently ever since. They are great fun!"
"We love the Superspace panels and our guests do as well. I am the CEO of a Children's Museum and it is one of the most popular parts of one of our galleries. We see improved engagement and teamwork amongst children, engagement with parents, particularly fathers, a LOT of inquiries about where to buy, increased creativity."
"At our children's museum, it is one of the best activities to get kids of different ages, and adults, to work together. You can see older kids learning skills of helping the younger kids be contributors while being patient when they knock something down."
"We absolutely love your products, and so do our library patrons! Excited to see what new ideas are developed by your team. We have the panels in the children's area of our library. They are a HUGE hit! We've noticed that kids are engaging with each other more, it really encourages cooperative play."
"Engagement is over the top! Creativity, collaborative learning, not intimidating even for our youngest (2.5) learners. These tiles are the first thing my students run to in our Early Childhood STEAM lab. We LOVE them!"
"One of the biggest benefits for our program has been the opportunities to improve social skills, problem solving and collaboration with peers."
