Kid’s Science Product Reviews

It can be daunting navigating the world of kid’s science toys. Some of these science-based products are great in an educational setting, others…maybe not as much.

Whether you’re looking to buy a robot for a birthday or a 3D printer for the family, we’ve got some suggestions on what to buy, and what to pass on.

Most of the science-based products we review we like, but that is because we research our purchases ahead of time, filtering out the items that lack very much STEM appeal, can’t be used over and over again, or seem to be clumsy.

If you are looking specifically to purchase a robotic toy for your child, I would suggest you head over to our Robotics for Kids post that has a list of our favorites as well as links to each product review.
