Celebrating Our First-Ever International Day of Play at MAGNA-TILES!
On June 11, 2025, we joined the global celebration by hosting our very first International Day of Play at MAGNA-TILES. This day is all about recognizing the power of play, and at MAGNA-TILES, play isn’t just what we do. It’s who we are.
A Day Full of Play, Purpose, and People
To celebrate, our whole team came together for a company-wide event that mixed creativity, connection, and a whole lot of fun. From the early planning stages, teams across the company pitched in. They built activity kits, designed play stations, and helped create a special experience for guests.
We were proud to partner with KidsWork Children’s Museum in New Lenox and DuPage Children’s Museum in Naperville to bring this day to life. These amazing partners helped us reach even more families and share the joy of hands-on, meaningful play.
We welcomed local families, friends, and children of all ages to experience the magic of MAGNA-TILES up close. It was a day filled with energy, imagination, and connection.
What We Heard from Our Guests
The best part? Seeing the impact firsthand. Here’s what some families had to say:
“We go to the children’s museum all the time and saw this event on Facebook. So glad we came! You all did an amazing job. The turnout was huge, and your team handled it with so much care.”
“Everyone was so kind, and the kids were obsessed with the chalk markers and clear tiles. We stayed for hours, got our first MAGNA-TILES set thanks to the giveaway, and our toddler even fell asleep clutching one of the tiles. Thank you for making this day so special!”
The Joy Doesn’t Stop Here
This event reminded us why we do what we do. It brought our team closer together, gave back to our community, and showed us that play has the power to build more than just towers. It builds connection, creativity, and confidence.
We’re excited to keep the momentum going and continue supporting initiatives that put play at the center of learning and growth for children, families, and our team.
