Geomag E-Motion 32 Review

Swiss brand Geomag has recently released a brand new range called E-Motion, which helps learn all about invisible forces, such as acceleration, magnetism, gravity, propulsion and friction. There are three sets to collect: Blister, Display and 32. I have received the E-Motion 32 set to review.

Newton’s Lab Make Your Own Catapult

Thanks to this Newton’s Lab Make Your Own Catapult kit from Kikkerlandeu.com, this Easter half term, we have been having fun catapulting lots of treats to our buddy dog Mabel. Through this kit, we have been learning about Newton’s first law of inertia and gravity by making our own catapult. Then we measured how far projectiles land and plotted the variations on a graph chart.

Geomag Mechanics Vertical Motor Review

This half term, we have been busy building this awesome gravity elevator vertical motor using Geomag Mechanics range pieces. This vertical motor does not require batteries, but just a simple push, it will harness the invisible forces of magnetism and gravity to create chain reactions.

National Geographic Play Sand & Dig Kits Review

This is our last month working as Bandai STEM Ambassadors and we are so pleased that Bandai is giving one of their fantastic dig kits to one of my readers. We have reviewed quite a few kits like the Gemstone & Shark Tooth, Geode, Build Your Own Volcano and Growing Crystal & Sea Monkeys and they have never disappointed me in quality and for the educational benefits.

National Geographic Mini Dig Kit Review

This month’s review as Bandai STEM Ambassadors is one of my favourite kits and there are five kits to collect: Dino Poop, Fool’s Gold, Gemstone, Shark Tooth and Treasure. These mini dig kits might come in a small package but they have everything you need to learn and to excavate. Also, what I like about these kits is that they provide genuine items and not those cheap copies that you sometimes find.

National Geographic Build Your Own Volcano

This is our fourth month of being the Bandai STEM Ambassadors and we have received the Build Your Own Volcano kit! Both of my children love science projects, especially those experiments that they can make a big mess and this is one of those experiments!

Thames & Kosmos Science Kits Review

STEM is so important as it pervades every part of our lives and by exposing young children to STEM is one of the greatest gifts of knowledge we can ever give them. This Easter holiday, we are thrilled to be able to experience a brand new range of science toys from Thames & Kosmos and also divert the children away from their screens and learn something.

Thames & Kosmos has launched a series of eight exciting science kits that are designed to introduce various topics with interesting experiments and fun facts. Each kit is priced at just £8.99 which is very affordable and delivers genuine learn-while-they-play experiences for young ones. These lovely collection kits cover minerals, planets, crystals, pre-historic crustaceans and more. The kits are suitable for age eight and above.

Tips for Parents to get their Girls into a STEM Career

During my school days, I never had an opportunity to learn about Technology and Engineering. All the girls at my old school were made to learn home economics like sewing and cookery, whilst the boys were given the opportunity to build their own stuff. I recall a teacher told me that I should choose nursing rather than accounting as it is more suitable for a girl.

The truth is, I always scored the highest for my accounting and maths subjects in my class but I was never encouraged to pursue it. I was never encouraged to look outside the socially acceptable roles and I want to see that changed.
