STEM Toys
STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math and STEM products encourage kids to develop core skills in these areas. These are really important skills for your kids to be exposed to, even if they never grow up to be scientists. I’m all about a very well-rounded education, filled with science, math, english, reading, sports, music, and more! The challenge, at times, can be to get your child to really put their all into all of these diverse subjects and disciplines. Some kids are artsy (Natalie) and some kids are scientific (Liam).
Hello, Jimu
As with almost everything else in life, so much has to do with the tools you are able to use to get the job done! For kids, the tools should be able to teach them while making it fun! Best Buy carries products from basic learning games to advanced toys designed to stimulate a child’s mind in the STEM areas, helping to develop logic and problem solving skills…while helping them to have a great time, too! One of the coolest learning & educational toys I’ve found at Best Buy has to be the Jimu Robot!
Create a custom-built robot that has moving arms and legs with this UBTech Jimu Robot Buzzbot and Muttbot kit. Choose from preprogrammed movements in the Jimu Robot App (which really makes it easy to learn construction techniques), or generate unique settings with the PRP function.

This is such a great toy! Technology is leaping forward by what seems like miles everyday. STEM is the future, and our kids need to be on the forefront of that.
We have a few STEM tools that use apps and coding to get into early robotics but they’re quite dull to look at. I think these kits are great to really engage and excite younger minds.
