My children love technology and this is something that they both explored more during the summer holidays. They are both digital kids, love their tablets and love to create online content – I have no idea where they get that from! A few weeks ago we were gifted the new Studio Creator Video Maker kit…
A few months ago we told you about the Plane Launcher kit, one of the new kits from Build Your Own who make sustainable toys with less plastic. This was a a great STEM toy (one which utilises science, technology, engineering and mathematics) for kids aged 8 and over, and they have enjoyed playing with…
