1) Number Puzzles & Math Games
Make number tiles (0–20), simple sums, number bonds, skip-counting ladders, or “fill the missing number.” Frame problems with tiles and let kids slide answers into place.
2) Write & Wipe Tiles (with chalk pens)
Use Tetra chalk pens to label shapes, trace letters, write sight words, make shop signs, or “numbered parking” for toy cars.
Tip: Test a tiny corner first and wipe off with a soft cloth (mild soapy water if needed).
3) Create a Tiny Town
Combine CONNETIX with animals, cars, or dolls to build homes, shops, stables and roads. Let stories lead the build!
4) Light Play
Pop tiles on a window or light table and explore colour mixing, shadows, and stained-glass effects. Beautiful and calm.
5) Build Towers (and Knock Them Down)
Stack high, count down, and crash! Great for resilience and cause-and-effect. Try timing how long it stands before the wobble.
6) Symmetry & Mirror Challenges
Place a Base Plate “down the middle.” You build one side; your child mirrors it. Level up with trickier shapes and colour patterns.
7) Pattern & Mandala Designs
Lay tiles flat to create mandalas, flowers or faces. Quiet, mindful play that builds focus and design thinking.
8) Blueprint Copy & Build
Draw a simple 2D “plan” on paper (or print cards), then challenge kids to recreate it in 2D or 3D. Great step toward engineering thinking.
9) Scavenger Sort
Pick a colour or shape, then hunt the house/yard for 5 matching objects. Sort on matching tiles and snap a photo of the collection.
10) Art Frames & Photo Displays
Create colourful magnetic “frames” on your fridge or whiteboard, then slide in kids’ artwork or printed photos for a rotating display.
