A building block set having a series of blocks and screws for connecting blocks. The blocks are provided with screw holes to receive screws. The screws insert into a block and extend into a neighboring block. Some of the screws are provided with screw heads having threaded channels that are configured to receive terminal ends of other screws.

A magnetic plate toy includes a plurality of magnets and a polygonal plate member that includes a plurality of accommodation onions. A first magnet is movable along a side wall of the plate member and is rotatable about a first rotation axis oriented along the length of the first magnet and about a second rotation axis oriented along a thickness direction of the plate member. The plurality of accommodation portions are disposed along one or more side walls of the plate member, and a first accommodation portion include a first end portion. A width of the first end portion is equal to or greater than the width of the first magnet, the width of the first end portion is less than the length of the first magnet, and a width of an accommodation space in the first accommodation portion is greater than the width of the first end portion.

A base member configured for use with a windowed magnetic tile, the base member including a tile portion having three or more outer edges configured with respective protrusions for fitting engagement with respective notches on corresponding three or more inner edges of the windowed magnetic tile; a first projection extending outwardly from a first surface of the tile portion formed by the three or more outer edges; and a first opening disposed on the first projection.

A building toy and a method of building with it. The toy is designed to be constructed of a rigid and generally non-deformable material such as, but not limited to, wood and particularly hardwood, and is constructed in the fashion of a log-style building toy. The toy utilizes interconnecting notches in its construction, but provides for a variety of specialized pieces which allow for interconnection of parts where there is one notch but not another, as well as the ability to build roofs, floors, and specialty structures such as fireplaces through the use of specialized components. Further, the use of more strongly connecting components allows for stronger structures to be built. This includes, but is not limited to various types of bridges, including arch, suspension, and cable stay.
