Magnetic Pad
Magnetic Pad
No paper. No pens. No mess. Just a stylus, a surface full of tiny magnetic beads, and as much space to draw, write, and create as a child's imagination allows.
The Magnetic Pad is one of those quietly brilliant tools that earns its place in a school bag, a therapy room, a restaurant bag, and a long car journey all at once. Draw with the stylus. Erase with your finger. Start again. It really is that simple.
What's included:
- 1 magnetic bead pad (17.2 cm x 21.5 cm),
- 1 magnetic stylus,
- 1 drawstring storage bag,
- 4 printable copy cards — emailed automatically after purchase.
Available styles: Black (includes stylus) — R350 | Aqua (includes stylus) — R350 | Replacement stylus — R59.95
What our OT says:
What looks like a drawing toy is actually doing a great deal of developmental work. Using the magnetic stylus requires a functional pencil grip and deliberate hand pressure, the same skills needed for writing. The bead surface provides rich tactile feedback as children draw, which supports sensory processing and helps reinforce letter and shape formation in a way that paper simply cannot.
The copy cards take this further, offering structured practice in pattern copying, visual perception, and spatial reasoning, all foundational skills for reading and writing readiness. And because the pad erases instantly, children can practise without the frustration of mistakes, which makes it particularly valuable for children who are reluctant writers or who struggle with pencil control.
One of our OT's favourite uses: write a letter or number on the pad and ask the child to trace over it with their finger as they say it aloud , multi-sensory learning at its best.
How to play:
Use the stylus to draw, write letters, copy patterns, or create freely on the bead surface. Run a finger across the surface to erase and start again. Use the printable copy cards for guided pattern and pre-writing practice.
Other ways to play:
Draw half a picture and ask your child to complete it, great for symmetry and spatial thinking. Take turns adding to a shared drawing. Practice writing letters or numbers, then erase and repeat. Use for counting, draw a number and ask your child to draw that many dots. Hide shapes in the beads by pressing them down and let your child find and trace them. Use as a quiet, screen-free activity during travel, restaurants, or church.
Let customers speak for us
Great addition to our light-box and there are more than one of each letter in this set. This gives you more word building opportunities.
What a great fine motor beading set. They give nice resistance when children push them together and pull them apart, which helps strengthen the fingers and improve hand control.
My nearly-4-year old daughter loves playing 'doctor' with this doll. She took it to school show and tell and it was a hit!
Another great buy from tiny tree toys <3
The Humpty Dumpty wall game is a firm favourite with our toddlers. It’s a simple cause-and-effect activity that immediately grabs attention and keeps little ones engaged. While it’s a plastic game and not the most durable piece in the room, the value for money is excellent. The amount of fun, repetition, and learning we’ve had from it makes it well worth it for early play and therapy sessions.
The rope ladder brings instant adventure into the OT space. It invites pretend play while quietly working on grip strength, shoulder stability, core control, and bilateral coordination. Climbing rung by rung challenges motor planning and body awareness, while the imaginative element keeps children motivated and engaged. It’s a brilliant way to blend functional movement, confidence-building, and play in a way that feels exciting rather than therapeutic.
The trapeze swing is always a hit in the OT room. It builds strong arms, shoulders, and core while giving the kind of movement input kids love. Swinging, hanging, and climbing all support coordination, body awareness, and regulation without it ever feeling like hard work. Big movement, big smiles, and loads of therapeutic value packed into one piece of equipment.
I was so excited to see something new in educational games. This can be used in many different ways. Perhaps it would be useful to list the different ways it can be used from simple to complex.
We are using this in therapy and I think the size and challenge is perfect for many of the kids we work with. One suggestion would be to add an extra one of each colour to make it more challenging - so if they get to the last one, it’s a bigger challenge to choose the correct colour when copying a pattern. Also in case any get lost. But overall, good quality and a lovely game
Well made and cute. Exactly what you expect
These stick-on toys are so versatile and easy to carry with you. I was surprised and delighted to find so many uses for them. Started using them at 6 month and they are still in play a year later.
Our grandson, Lukas, is sooo happy with these - he is 3 and looooves them.
Absolutely love this product. It's only the beginning, but it looks durable, well worth the price. Again, so much to do with this product!
