And minutes later, that beautiful scene will give way to a new scene — a living room covered in scraps of wrapping paper, bows, empty boxes and the kids buzzing about their new toys.
What the kids may not realize during all that unwrapping fury is that I’ve been thinking about those gifts for quite some time. I’ve been thinking a lot about how to couple their desire to play with my desire to see them learn and grown. Thankfully Educational Insights has been thinking about that, too!
Educational Insights is a company that has a passion for inspiring kids. They think outside the box to create toys, games, and activities that are not only fun and beautifully designed, but each toy is also packed full of educational value!
Dino Construction Company ::
My son is completely enamored with dinosaurs right now. Their different sizes. What they ate. How they lived. Everything about these prehistoric creatures intrigues him. And while there are quite a few dinos on the market this holiday season, one of my favorites is Dino Construction Company by Educational Insights.
The dinosaurs of Dino Construction Company are part dino, part construction vehicle. And all fun!
Kids will love creating their own dinosaur world with T-TOP! Triceratops Bulldozer, BOOM! Brachiosaurus Backhoe, SPIKE! Ankylosaurus Steam Roller, and WRECKER! T-Rex Skid Loader while using each of the dines construction skills to dig, load, and flatten the world around them!
I love that each of the dinos helps encourage imaginative play and creativity and can be used inside or outside! They can also be used in the summer sand/dirt or the winter snow…a huge plus for us since we just got a foot of early-winter snow!
Design & Drill
Design & Drill is another amazing toy from Educational Insights that kids are going to love this Christmas! The 2014 National Parenting Publications Awards Silver Award winning Design & Drill Socket to Me set allows preschoolers to use their own socket wrench to add colorful bolts to four different projects — boat, race car, robot and rocket ship.
Perfectly sized for their little hands, kids will love that they can use their own special tools, just like mom & dad’s, all while exploring their imagination and working on that eye-hand coordination!
Those are just two of the amazing toys Educational Insights offers. They literally have something for everyone from ages baby to preteen! And if you need help finding that perfect gift for the little one on your shopping list, just check out their handy-dandy Holiday Gift Guide!
