Add magnets to interlocking bricks
Interlocking bricks have round cavities underneath, which are perfect for inserting magnets. Magnetised in this way, interlocking toy bricks are not only suitable as noticeboard magnets; they have many other advantages as well. More about that later.Note from the supermagnete team:
Magnets are not toys! If you let your children play with the magnetised interlocking bricks, please explain the dangers of magnets to them and make sure the magnets cannot come loose. Swallowing several magnets can be fatal!

Materials needed for magnets made with interlocking bricks:
- 1 piece of parchment paper
- 1 coffee cup. A teacup works too :-)
- Adhesive, e.g. UHU MAX REPAIR
- 1 toothpick
- Various interlocking toy bricks
- 1 spoon or something else magnetic that is good for applying pressure
- Disc magnets type S-05-02-N52N
Note from the supermagnete team:
Since the magnets are practically the same size as the cavities in the interlocking brick, it is also possible to omit the adhesive altogether.
The step after the next can then be skipped.
Showtime!
One interlocking toy brick with a 5 x 2 mm magnet securely holds 5 DIN-A4 sheets (80g/m2 paper) on the fridge. So, a single magnet per brick is usually sufficient. If not, there are two possibilities:Special bricks
They really like the possibilities of the new "special bricks" that can solve previously unsolvable interlocking brick problems.But what my kids like the most is announcing to Mom and Dad their new search game: "Where are the refrigerator magnets now?"
