Kaiko’s Magnetic Pad is reminiscent of old magnetic face boards. They are composed of a board with 380 holes that contain a tiny, secure magnetic ball, and a stylus. When you pass the stylus across the top, the mini beads are drawn to the top creating a picture, letter, or design. Simply push the ball back down to “erase” your work. Tilt the board upside down to let the beads drop, and rub your hands on them for a tactile experience. Or simply rub your fingers over the embedded balls for an experience that feels like popping bubble wrap.
