“These colourful, interlocking magnetic tiles provide a versatile tool that can be used to target speech sounds, turn taking, following directions and rapport building across all ages. From building simple structures to creating elaborate scenes, their adaptability makes them an invaluable resource that I can easily tailor to each client’s needs, abilities, or interests.
