I am already shopping for holiday gifts for the twins, who also have a Christmas birthday. I have found some great STEM deals on Amazon and thought I’d share what I find with you. There are also great deals at Target, Lowe’s, Bed Bath & Beyond and Home Depot every day through Dec. 24.

Smarty Pants – Kindergarten Card Set
31% OFF
$8.97/$12.99
We loved these when the twins were little. Ignore the kindergarten and start using these in early pre-k and into first grade. They love them! And it’s not so boring for parents, either. Always a good thing.

LEGO Boost Creative Toolbox|
20% OFF
$127.00/$159.99
It’s crazy expensive but cool Lego kits that are actually on the kids’ lists are hardly ever on sale. This award-winning STEM learning toy is a complete robot kit. Kids can construct and code Vernie the Robot to dance, “rock out on the Guitar4000, foster Frankie the Cat, interact with the Autobuilder, or explore a new discovery with the M.T.R.4 (Multi-Tooled Rover 4).”
Simple Machines – Mechanisms That Multiply Force
35% OFF
$62.03/$95.99
This type of kit has been a favorite because it can be played with over and over, and over years. It basically grows with them and their interests. The kit combines 5 STEM mechanic sets for Levers(, Inclined Planes, Pulley Drives, Cams and Worm Drives (a personal fave).
Kids can build 60 working models, such as a “Scissor Lift, Catapult, Helicopter, Vise, Wind Mill” and a lot they hadn’t heard of but my son sure created! There’s also a manual with 70 pages of theory and facts a 16-page quiz (homeschool alert!), 25 pages of experimental activities illustrating, 3D rendered illustrations and more.
Mom tip – give the kid a box with compartments to store the parts so they can build to their little hearts contents without losing any little pieces you’ll find with your bare feet!
