Tech Will Save Us Dough Universe
(Tech Will Save Us $29.99 each kit)
Learning about making a circuit is one of the big STEM trends this year. We’ve had elaborate sets for tweens as well as books and other building sets. This one is easy enough to share with your 4-5 year old as a parent child project or for your 6-9 year old child who can read. The sets combine science with art material (colorful play dough) to create circuits that will turn on lights and sounds. Like so many toys this season you’ll need to follow an app that gives kids step-by-step directions for their experiments. There are three sets: Bright Creatures, Electro Machines, and Techno Sounds. Don’t be misled by the musical notes on the Techno Sound kit, the sound effects are more percussive than melodic. That said it’s a fun kit for budding scientists. 4-8
