FOR YOUR PRESCHOOLER
The KIBO robot kit, from KinderLab Robotics is a unique robot toy that engages even the youngest children in active STEM/STEAM Learning. With KIBO, 4-7 year olds create, design, decorate and bring their own robot to life! KIBO kids’ imaginations soar – all without requiring screen time!
Designed for open-ended play, KIBO lets kids make almost anything – a character from a story, a carousel, a dancer, a race car – anything the child can think of. They plan a coding sequence using the programmable wooden building blocks, scan their sequence with KIBO, press its button and watch their creation go!

FOR YOUR TWEENS
Slip into a zen state of mind with the mind-clearing magic of the Original Buddha Board. This relaxation tool encourages creative expression, being in the moment, and letting go using only water, a bamboo brush and a clean slate. With each brush stroke your worries are transformed into a work of art and then sent off into the universe as the water dries and the image disappears. The Buddha Board is mess-free, aesthetically pleasing in any room and perfect for all ages.
