Edx Education’s toys stimulate children’s imagination and creative thinking skills. The ranges teach children to collaborate, problem solve, and be creative, and builds their confidence in key areas of STEAM education, developing key early skills, while encouraging exploration and experimentation with many different learning concepts through play.
There are many new additions to the award-winning Rainbow Pebble, Geostix and construction kit ranges this year, greatly increasing Edx Education’s STEAM offering. There are new constructions sets, sustainable options and retail ranges, with the new My Gears construction range recently receiving STEAM accreditation from the Good Play Guide.
Designed to support home and classroom learning, the new My Gears construction kits are open-ended educational toys, providing hours of engaging, hands-on learning, and are perfect for developing early engineering skills, encouraging creative thinking, curiosity and problem solving, while also developing fine motor skills.
Children can create and explore by linking several gears together with the chains to create unique and amazing machines. Wheels turn and gears move, as they create moving cars, bikes, a tractor and so much more. Junior engineers learn to understand the basic principles of gears, movement and force, while building the fun models with the easy-to-follow instruction booklets. Compatible with the 2cm linking cube sets for extended play potential, there are multiple construction possibilities to inspire young minds.
Edx Education is also on a journey to a more sustainable future with the new Green-n-Learn ranges.
The Green-n-Learn Whale Story Counter Set has an important message about the effect of single-use plastic waste on our oceans, and aims to help educate children on the importance of looking after our environment. Using FSC certified packaging, the Whale Counters are made from a bio plastic, and the activity booklet is made with recycled paper and printed with soy inks.
The team at Edx Education has really enjoyed developing this educational toy set. The Whale Story Counter Set was inspired from working alongside Kuro Shio Ocean Oasis, a charity that protects oceans and the environment around us. The charity is working with local communities in Asia, clearing plastic waste from the oceans, and creating a whale and dolphin conservation zone.
Sand, water and messy play, meanwhile, have always been a fundamental part of Edx Education’s early years ranges. This year it’s launching a new water tray and pump, designed to withstand the rigours of busy little hands and provide hours of fun learning.
There are so many benefits of water play in the classroom or at home. A great introduction to early science concepts, messy play creates new neural pathways and improves important sensory processing systems. It can also help social skills such as communication and cooperation, improve hand-eye coordination and fine/gross motor skills.
Edx Education has been designing and producing innovative educational products and materials for more than 25 years. Working with educational experts, it produces ‘learning through play’ ranges that have been designed to support children and their caregivers in all aspects of play-based learning and development. From early years active play to maths, Edx Education’s ranges are built for children to be creative, learn and have fun with interactive counters, award-winning Rainbow Pebbles, construction sets, STEAM sets and outdoor play collections.
