One thing we can all agree on is that this year’s back-to-school is going to look quite different. This can be unsettling for children, parents, and teachers alike. My sister’s children started to attend school last week, but were told on day 3 that a classmate had tested positive for COVID, so it is back to online classes for them!
For many of us, plans for the fall are still up in the air. Thankfully, there are certain products that can help ease the anxiety and prepare kids for a successful school year ahead regardless of location. From buildable magnetic toys, to science kits, these products allow kids to explore valuable hands-on tools and STEM subjects that will engage them in educational fun before school even begins.
