Want to know more about Page 7 of STEM Toys & Manipulatives
What are STEM and STEAM learning toys?
STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) and STEAM (adds Art) learning toys are designed to spark curiosity and encourage hands-on exploration. These tools help students connect real-world concepts to classroom learning through play. Examples include math manipulatives, science lab kits, building sets, and beginner coding toys—all designed to build foundational skills while keeping kids engaged.
Why are STEM/STEAM toys important in the classrooms?
STEM and STEAM toys promote critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration. These learning tools go beyond memorization—helping students build problem-solving skills, develop perseverance, and learn how to work as a team. Whether it’s figuring out how to balance a structure or writing basic code, these toys prepare students to think, test, and try again.
What are math manipulatives and what are the benefits?
Math manipulatives are physical learning tools—like counters, dice, base ten blocks, or geometric shapes—that help students visualize math concepts. They’re especially useful for younger learners and kinesthetic learners. Manipulative play supports motor skills, sequencing, pattern recognition, and problem-solving. Students also build confidence by experimenting and finding solutions through hands-on discovery.
