Super Sun Prints
(The Lawrence Discovery Store $19.99) This is a great classic STEM activity developed by The Lawrence Hall of Science that's fun to do on a sunny day. The set comes with 15 8" x 12" sheets and 1 acrylic overlay. For me it's the process that's the most thrilling. You place objects (e.g. keys, a leaf) and place them on the photosensitive paper. Add the acrylic overlay and leave it in the sun for 1-5 minutes until the paper turns white. Now here's where the amazing part comes
LEGO FRIENDS Olivia's Space Academy
(LEGO SYSTEM $69.99) The first time that LEGO FRIENDS has focused on girls going to space. A fun build with lots of pretend play opportunities once it's built. Set comes with a Space Shuttle, Space Academy Building, a telescope, a multi-axis trainer, and four LEGO Friends characters. 8 & up. Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold Seal Award 2022

Inflatable Ride On Hop'n Go Unicorns
(Hearthsong $49.98) We love this set of inflatable ride-on unicorns that are fun for backyard play. You can set up a relay race with them. Each is 48"" x 20"W x 36"H and can hold up to 200 pounds. You'll need to have a pump to inflate them. The company says that they should be used on grass. 5 & up. Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold Seal Award 2022 Click here to shop on Amazon
