Top At Home Learning Pre-School STEM Toys!
Since being a former middle and high school science teacher for 8 years before I became a mom, I’m a huge advocate for having science related toys for my kids to play with. My husband is also an engineer, so both of us are fans of science, technology, engineering, or math related toys that are educational and fun. We still have a 5 year old at our house, so I’m always on the hunt for great STEM toys that are on her learning level. Here is a great list of toys made by Learning Resources & The Learning Journey that are top notch at home learning pre-school STEM toys!
Shining Stars Projector – It’s a galaxy of stars in the palm of your hand! Young astronomers can explore early space science by beaming images of space onto any surface for a close-up view of stars, planets, and more! Just place the discs into the slot for quick and easy viewing. Features an easy-carry handle, automatic shut-off to conserve battery life, and a stand for projector mode. Includes 3 discs, with 8 images on each (24 images total).
Since we’ve heard so much about experiences watching this years solar eclipse, here is a great toy to keep the conversation going at home about our solar system!

Squeeze the frog to open its mouth, pick up flies and strengthen fine motor muscles! Roll a cube to determine which flies to munch.
Math- Reinforces both numbers and counting skills using the number cube with flies, allowing students to explore number-quantity relationships.
Fine Motor- Encourages bilateral coordination by grasping the frog with one hand and feeding it with the other.
We love Froggy Feeding Fun at our house because its a great activity that reinforces both counting and color learning.
Here is my 4 year old getting her 4 blue flies that she just rolled the dice to get.
She also has fun squeezing the frog and pretending he’s eating the flies!
