STEAM kits for all
One of the best (and frankly most relieving) parts of watching a kid grow up is when they finally start getting into toys that are actually entertaining for grownups as well. Once you’ve put in your time combing out the manes on tiny plastic ponies, you’ve more than earned a turn or two playing with something a little less…ponyish.
These are that. In addition to being good, educational STEAM (Science, Technology Engineering, Art, Math) toys, these are just downright fun and engaging, whether you’re a kid or just in proximity to one.
Code a light show. Build a little car. Program games. Create musical instruments.
Maybe all of the above?
NO.
NOT ALL OF THE ABOVE.
ahem
No, not all of the above. You get to pick two. Unless you’re up for spending an extra $29, in which case, yes, you can do all of the above.
Honestly, that wouldn’t be a bad move. Especially when we’re all home more for a bit longer, it’s not a bad thing to have a couple of self-contained educational activities lined up and ready to break out on a particularly slow day.
It’s the kind of thing where your kid will undoubtedly surprise you by having a better grasp on tech concepts than anyone who was in diapers less than a decade ago has any right to.
Anyway, enjoy some STEAM.
