Here’s an activity that you might want to try for March! St. Patrick's Day Pattern Blocks Spin and Build, where you integrate math (shapes) to St. Patrick's Day symbols and icons. Using the mats, you spin the spinner for the shapes that you will be using to form the puzzle.

STEM Toy Learning Optics with Laser Maze Logic Game
Friday, February 3, 2017
The boys are crazy over this Laser Maze Logic Game. I came across this logic STEM toy while I was scouting for learning materials for Mavi’s “optics” activity. Mavi loves solving the problems in the task cards and Vito on the other hand is fascinated by the effect of the laser light on the target.

Investigating the Past Life with Safari Toob Fossils
Friday, June 17, 2016
Anyway, Mavi is officially joining Vito’s weekly themed activities as he’s almost done with school. He misses “Mom” school and urged me to let him join with the activities. So while Vito is all about play and learn, I’m giving Mavi some serious investigative work like research, more readings, and selective hands-on activities.

Creativity with Shape Mags (Stick N Stack)
Friday, June 3, 2016
Vito is 30 months old.
I bought this amazing product when we went to the US last month. We have Magnatiles and we love it, but the problem is we can’t really make something more out of those squares and triangles. When I came across Stick N Stack in Amazon and read good reviews, I just needed to buy those beautiful window tiles and carts! And if you ask me, yes they work really well with Magnatiles!
And since we’re having Transportation Unit, I made Vito create his own cart. Oh boy, he played with it for hours!! I asked Mavi to assist his little brother for awhile but later on left when he realized that Vito doesn’t want him for a playmate.
