Stems Flexible 3D Maker Toy

With so many children having so much access to screens and devices these days, it's becoming more important for children to step away from gadgets and be introduced to STEM toys as an alternative. STEMS toys are basically any toy that teaches science, technology, engineering or mathematics. Many parents and teachers like to use STEM toys to reinforce important learning skills in a fun way. When children are having fun, they usually don’t even realise they are learning.


Playing with STEM toys from a young age allows children to be creative and develop problem solving skills. There's nothing more fulfilling than seeing a child figuring out different ways and approaches to various situations in life. Most importantly STEM toys can encourage children to explore their own skills and develop their passion through play. My daughter will be turning five this month and it's time to introduce more STEM toys to help her learning, development and watch her flourish. My daughter has already told me she dreams of becoming an engineer like her dad.


So with that in mind, we have been looking at all the different types of toys that we can help encourage our daughter in STEM play and we came across this intriguing construction toy from Learning Resources. The Stems Flexible 3D Maker Toy really does provide an endless range of possibilities when it comes to making some weird and wonderful pieces, children or adults can really unleash their creative imaginations. 


These brightly coloured Stems are available in tubs of 20 or 60. We received the tub of 20 which provided my daughter and husband lots of opportunities to get creative and make some wild and wonderful creations. Each piece is the same shape and made from a strong and flexible material that makes them easy to twist and clip together. We have made a wide variety of shapes including a ball, a frog and a princess crown. 



As with all toys from Learning Resources these are high quality and very robust, any play with these Stems 3D Toy Maker will sure to keep those occupied for hours on end whether they are five or twenty five. Everyone in our household loves these stems pieces and they comes in a range of colours that will appeal to anyone. If you're feeling especially creative and want make some weird and wild creations then go and see what else you can make

  6. These look like they'd keep young people off screens for a while - I hope they might be looking at changing to plastic free packaging though.
