Most kids can’t wait for the school day to end so they can get home and play. And, choosing the best activities to keep their minds busy and creative juices flowing can be a challenge.
Education Specialist, Toy Commentator & Columnist, Meredith Sinclair, has some terrific ideas on how you can keep them engaged in creative play after the bell has rung – whatever they’re doing – all the way through bedtime.
Meredith’s recommendation for after-school play
- Let your child experiment by replicating the world they live in, with the LEGO Creator Series
- Logitech Play Collection are happy, bright and bold mice to pair up with any playful kid and their computer
- Make bedtime fun and magical by bringing bedtime stories to life with Storytime Theater
- VTech Flipsies empowers girls through imagination and play – no dream is too big!
- For the fashionista with a creative flair, Hipfit plush dress-shaped hangers are an accessory for your accessories
- Play, learn and socialize with Ozobot tiny programmable robots
