Educational toys take many forms: kits that teach and allow for building upon STEM principles such as physics, chemistry or biology that promote an interest to experiment and be creative in an interactive way. Beyond science kits, educational toys for kids ages 8+ need to explore the science of the everyday world around them. Whether for home school or as a gift for learning, provide a solid model and foundation for scientific curiosity that is fun and immersive.
