I received these items for review, all opinions are my own.
My girls absolutely love to play and use their imagination. Charlotte my 4 year old will sit down by herself for over an hour just playing pretend! She will sit and make up her own stories all the time with her toys. What I love about Build & Imagine Magnet houses is that each time you play it is completely different then the last time! There are 2 new sets the Fairytale Theater and Pet Portrait studio. Both are made for little hands to build and then of course play and imagine!
The Build & Learn Fairytale theater is the perfect toy to play pretend. I love that the theater can be built in so many different ways.
“Curtain up! Act out classic fairytales or make up your own with the Fairytale Theater magnetic storytelling set. Choose from 8 mix & match stage backdrops and more than 50 costumes and props. Provides endless inspiration for young thespians to create tales of adventure.
- Build the stage any way you like; theater panels join magnetically
- Choose costumes and props to inspire your story; magnetic accessories stick to the characters and panel walls
- Whisper stories or invite your family to a show
Features a pirate cove, treasure map, spooky forest, armor and swords, sorcerer’s wand, evil and good castles, royal bedroom, facial expressions, and much more!

I also really liked the Pet Portrait Studio. This one Charlotte loved! She loved dressing the pets in crazy outfits and pretending to take their pictures!
“Woof! Meow! Squawk! Help Anna and Ethan prepare the local shelter pets for adoption day by providing each pet with a special portrait. Build a studio with the illustrated magnetic panels, then dress the pets in crazy outfits and arrange wacky scenes for the dolls to capture with their camera and paintbrushes.
Pet Portrait Studio includes Ethan and Anna wooden dress-up characters, 4 wooden pets, 10 dual-sided building panels, and more than 40 magnetic accessories. It features a painter’s studio, photo studio, photo lab, pet lounge, treats, smocks, art supplies, pet costumes, adoption fair, a dozen pets, and more!

“Both Fairytale Theatre and Pet Portrait Studio encourage left (math/science) and right (creativity) brain play. Kids construct magnetic panels using foundational STEM skills like spatial reasoning and problem solving, and then make up storylines that heighten their language skills. Fairytale Theater has more than 50 costumes and props to spark imaginative play, and Pet Portrait Studio includes four wooden dress-up pets in addition to the two wooden people. These new kits appeal to boys as much as to girls making them ideal for sibling play or with the kids next-door.” (Build & Imagine press release)
I love both of these sets, so much fun!
