My kids love creating new structures. Right now their favorite game is trying to find new ways to build towers that make them sturdier than the last tower they built. Then they pretend there is an earthquake and shake the board which the built the tower on to see how long it lasts.
There is something different about these building blocks. There is really no limit to the creativity and design. They can be stacked to make all sorts of models.

This magnetic set quickly became a favorite toy in our house. My kids love the flowers. There are different sizes of flowers so you can build many different combinations.
My kids love adding stems to make long and tall flowers and building houses and other fun things we these building pieces.

There are a lot of magnetic toys but very few that have so many different types of pieces in one set.

What kind of Stem Toys do your kids like?
These toys are really interesting. It helps the kids in developing their mental strength. Such toys should be given to all growing children.
Several of my grandchildren attend "STEM" schools.I think that they would love the SmartRod kits as well as the Building Planks. I'm happy that they enjoy playing with these types of toys.These items are goint o our Christtas List for this year.
I love giving my kids toys that encourage STEM learning. They would love playing with the Building Planks and the SmartRod Magnetic Discovery playsets. They get a kick out of creating structures and objects. When they older, they would probably love playing with the Solar Car Educational Kit and see it run on its own power.
I have many friends who have studied in early childhood education and have said how wonderful wooden planks are. All of the toys you've rounded up here seem incredibly effective. Will have to ask my fellow educator-friends which ones they've tried out.
STEM seems to be an educational buzzword these days, but I like many of the toys that have been promoted with a STEM focus. I would like to try out the solar kit. We have been talking about solar panels and such lately and how they work.
These are great toys! I love magnetic toys because the kids are able to be creative with them, creating different structures. I have not seen the solar car educational kit and will be getting one for my son!
These all look like such great toys! I haven't heard of many of them before, so I am excited to check them out. I love it when toys serve a dual purpose — fun and educational!
These are some great educational toys, and I'm all about educational toys! I bought my kids something similar to the Educational Kit and they love it!
