Get Kids Interested in Science with These 6 Fun Toys

How we educate our children at a young age will help determine their interests as they grow. By introducing science to them at an early age with fun and educational toys from stores like Buy.com and Edmund Scientific, you can get them interested in science and help them build a foundation for learning that will last throughout their lives. The list below shows some of the fun and educational toys that will help kick start their love for science.

1. Mindflex Game Board

This game uses brainwaves to complete simple tasks. The lightweight headset that comes with the game is worn to read the brainwaves and used to help move the small foam ball into different positions throughout the board. There are five different challenges including Freestyle, Mental Marathon, Danger Zone, Chase the Lights and Thoughtshot. You can have up to four players compete; this will bring hours of excitement as well as a better understanding of the science behind the brain.

2. Smithsonian Giant Erupting Volcano Kit

This safe and easy experiment allows youngsters to build their volcano from the ground up and control the flow of the eruption with a hand controller. The lava is safe and non toxic.

3. Celestron NexStar 60GT-SA

This popular computerized scope offers a f/5 optical system, quick align technology, and a 75 foot linear field view which is equal to 1000 yards. There is a Star Pointer scope that helps find the constellations and stars in the sky, and the easy-to-use telescope is lightweight enough to take along on trips. There is a 4,000 object database for easy reference and comes complete with a Sky Level CD Rom.

4. Build It Yourself Super Solar Racecar

This kit teaches children how the solar energy works by allowing them to create their very own solar powered race car. The car is small enough to fit into their pockets and can be operated using just the solar power of the sun or by using a light bulb.

5. The Magic School Bus Young Scientists Club – A Journey into the Human Body

This exciting kit offers young kids an insight into the human body and an acute understanding of how things work. With hands-on experiments, kids will bend bones, make joints, expand lungs, map taste buds, explore the functions of the bodies systems, and measure heart rates and lung capacity.

6. My First Chemistry Set

This kit comes complete with a microscope and all accessories needed to perform basic experiments and testing. Your child can test various items to determine if they are acids or bases, and use the kit to create rainbow disks and perform many experiments that are included in the guide. Children learn to compare, observe, describe, predict, conclude and even manipulate scientific data. This kit is the foundation for learning about the basic scientific structures and how they work. Kids will have hours of fun with this science kit and not even realize they are learning as they use it.
