The 'TRIDO' magnetic toys are beautifully designed pieces that connect together to create ornately beautiful designs that are all [geometric in aesthetic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collection-co).

Coming in several color options and shapes including octahedron, tetrahedron and half-tetrahedron, the 'TRIDO' toys are ideal for children or as a designer set of toys to fiddle with for adults. This comes as a very plausible possibility given the growing popularity of [fidget toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jigglets) that are specifically designed with office workers and professionals in mind.

The 'TRIDO' magnetic toys snap together evenly and seamlessly in order to create a number of different forms, animals and shapes that are beautifully simple. The 'TRIDO' toys are suitable for children and adults of all ages given their simple aesthetic and safe operation.
