STEM-based Christmas present ideas - help!

Hello all,

Does anyone have any STEM-based toys/kits/games they would recommend? If so, please could you post the details below (with links and suggested age-range if possible)? All suggestions welcome for all age ranges!

Thanks in advance,

Amber

  • Does it need to be in a postable box? 

    Anything that involves fettling, given the age/liberty/space/tools to do so:

    Make a puppet theatre? 

    Make kites? 

    Bicycles, motorcycles? 

    The former two can be built from scratch (think cardboard box theatre), the latter maybe deliberately refurbish & repair.

    Boats as well, but don't forget life jackets or buoyancy aids. Like motorcycle, that's for older ages, and you need the right space.

    The outdoors ones might encourage patience, too, if we're thinking of Christmas!
