STEM

Creative play is how our 2-year olds learn. Sometimes that means they get messy – sometimes that means they make a mess. In any case, they are not only having fun but they are also learning. Each experience they explore on their own allows them to learn about new textures, understand how things move and work, develop their own ideas and find new avenues to express and challenge themselves. Toys/Games geared towards helping kids develop STEM skills can be tactical or they can by techy. LeapFrog makes wonderful, truly educational, fun toys for kids.
