What makes this product special
Do you know what STEM means, and why most kids learn better when school subjects mix and mingle?
Read all about STEM, STEAM, and STREAMright here on our blog.Toys for learning through play
Play is essential for children’s learning, well-being, and development. Through play, children learn about themselves and the world around them.
Play helps children:
• stay curious
• focus and become absorbed in what they're doing
• take on age-appropriate challenges
• build confidence
We believe children learn best by doing things for themselves:
• by making mistakes
• by getting messy
• by falling down and getting back up again
Resilience, confidence, and courage grow through experience, one small step at a time.
That's why we carefully choose toys that encourage independence, imagination, movement, and social skills — offering just the right balance of support, freedom, and opportunities to grow.
Carefully selected toys
We carefully handpick every toy from the vast world of toys available today. The only toys that make it into our range are ones we'd be happy to give our own children.
Every toy at ToyAcademy should:
• support learning through play
• be made from durable, high-quality materials
• be safe and enjoyable for children to play with

Suitable for ages 8 yrs. to 11 yrs.
STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) is an umbrella term for diverse types of play and activities which mix play and learning with an interdisciplinary approach. Furthermore, playing with STEM-based toys and tools develops your child's curiosity about and understanding of the world of science.
Almost everything you come across can be explored. With the right gear, you can collect, observe, record, and investigate all the fascinating things you can find in the wild.
The more time you spend out there, the more questions will pop up. It's absolutely amazing how fascinating a a shovelful of soil from the balcony flower pot, a puddle in the yard, a stone on the beach, or a creepy crawly from the garden can be if you look way up close. Inspire your child to question what they experience and find answers with the right gear for studying nature.
The ToyAcademy team have thoroughly searched the market for durable quality gear for exploring nature, so your child can get several years of joy out of their gear and then pass it on to other little adventurers.
