As a Mom, I aim to give my children every opportunity to be active and learning with hands-on experiences and interactive toys. I love getting them outdoors, but we are also home more (due to social distancing and public restrictions.) Homeschooling and virtual learning is also happening. So I want to make learning at home fun, plus keep the kids busy and engaged in learning.

    I had no idea these toys are called STEM toys. My daughter actualy takes on her father so she is a 100% outdoor little person. I have trouble getting her inside the house. And even if I do, she is always drawing something or playing with legos. Love this post Vidya. Every mommy and daddy should read this.
