SmartMax is expanding its bestselling ‘My First’ collection with the launch of My First Acrobats, a pre-school magnetic construction set which encourages the development of a range of cognitive skills.

The brightly coloured set includes 6 different shaped geometric building blocks and 3 metal balls, each with a different character face. There are multiple ways to play and toddlers from 18m will love creating endless stacking possibilities. Either follow and complete the 24 pictures featured on the challenges cards, or to inspire creativity, they can combine the pieces in a multitude of ways to make the coolest looking acrobatic structures.

Karen Clarke, UK Brand Director for Smart Toys and Games said of the product launch:

“We are so excited to launch our latest SmartMax set – the ‘My First’ range is one of our bestselling collections so we are delighted that fans can now add even more fun to the magnetic mix! Like our multi-ward winning My First Totem that we launched in 2019, My First Acrobats offers toddlers two ways to play. A fantastic learning tool, they can master the picture challenges or use their own imagination to create weird and wonderful magnetic constructions. Promising to have little ones engaged for hours, this set is so much fun and provides fantastic play value.”

Introducing young children to the world of magnetism, SmartMax also encourages logical thinking, motor skills and imaginative play from the very beginning. The simple, yet effective design of the ‘My First’ sets enable children of all ages to engage with the product and allows them to build their own unique constructions in a multitude of ways.
