Science Toys For Kids Of ALL Ages

Almost every toy was a science toy first!  Electricity, tops, yoyo's, motors and light were at one time all brand new science inventions.   Even today, toys follow soon after discoveries and inventions are applied to industry.  You can find toys that use lasers, plasma physics, the latest robotics technology and embedded computers for a few tens of dollars.

Science toys come in several styles, and each has their own charm and benefit.   Many toys are fully assembled, many science toys come in kits, and other toys are described in build-it-yourself howto science books.  You can search for and select science toys in any of these categories.

First, you can buy completely assembled toys in all fields of science.  Biology science toys might include fully assembled microscopes, magnifiers, stained slides for anatomy and physiology, even ant farms or venus fly traps.  Chemical science toys could be slime or silly putty, chemical rockets, rocks and crystals, or boing balls.  Physics and electronics science toys comprise gyroscopes and tops, the yo-yo, plasma balls, magnets, motors and lasers.

Second, you can buy build-it-yourself kits.  These kits of course include the timeless chemistry set and the classical lego blocks, but many electronic kits are do-it-yourself to help you learn the science as you build.  Robot kits and robotic addons to lego toys are good examples, and electronic kits usually come with a workspace, or breadboard, and lots of parts that plug into the breadboard to make fully working electronic --- or even computer --- circuits.   Biology science toy kits might be a dissection set or slide mounting set, to help learn anatomy or microscope technique.  Physics science toy kits include optical assembly kits where you build your own telescope or make your own holograms.

Third, you can buy science books that show you how to demonstrate science.  Many of these books show experiments that can safely be performed by grade school kids.  Examples include how soap bubbles work, how plants grow and how plants adapt to different environments, how household chemicals react --- the classic vinegar and baking soda trick! --- and how to make solar power toys with parts you can buy at the store.  These books are often the easiest way to start learning science by fun.  You can literally find hundreds of science tricks in these books, and can often make these projects for free.

The internet is your best resource for learning about science toys.  It used to be that you had to shop through catalogs and toy stores to find your science toys, but now you can browse toys by category --- assembled, kits, how-to books --- or by science --- chemical toys, biology toys, physics toys, or robots --- right online, and select toys based on the best price or the most reputable merchant.  There is no better way to make learning science fun than to get these science toys and start to play!
