1. A magnetic block set, the magnetic block set comprising:
a first series of magnetically connectable magnetic block units, each magnetic block unit in the first series of magnetically connectable magnetic block units comprising:
a block body having one or more connection faces, wherein:
the block body includes:
a closed cell foam core, wherein the closed cell foam core is composed of:
 polyester;
 rubber; and
 urethane;
each connection face includes a plurality of connection face edges and a connection face surface; and
each connection face is a square;
two or more magnetic elements on each connection face, each of the two or more magnetic elements:
having a north pole aligned perpendicularly to the connection face; and
rated between N35 and N40;
an outer shell covering both the block body and each of the two or more magnetic elements, wherein the outer shell includes a first textile; and
a first indicator on the outer shell, wherein the first indicator:
allows a user to identify the polarity of the two or more magnetic elements in the first series of magnetically connectable magnetic block units; and
includes at least one of:
color;
pattern;
texture; or
fabric type; and
a second series of magnetically connectable magnetic block units, each magnetic block unit in the second series of magnetically connectable magnetic block units comprising:
a block body having one or more connection faces, wherein:
the block body includes:
a closed cell foam core, wherein the closed cell foam core is composed of:
 polyester:
 rubber; and
 urethane;
each connection face includes a plurality of connection face edges and a connection face surface; and
each connection face is a square;
two or more magnetic elements on each connection face, each of the two or more magnetic elements:
having a south pole aligned perpendicularly to the connection face; and
rated between N35 and N40
an outer shell covering both the block body and each of the two or more magnetic elements, wherein:
the outer shell includes a second textile; and
the outer shell includes a second indicator, wherein the second indicator:
allows a user to identify the polarity of the two or more magnetic elements in the second series of magnetically connectable magnetic block units;
is different that the first indicator; and
includes at least one of:
 color;
 pattern;
 texture; or
 fabric type; and
wherein any connection face of the first series of magnetically connectable magnetic block units can mate with any connection face of the second series of magnetically connectable magnetic blocks.
