The Wondery Kids & Wow in the World toy line offers enriching and innovative products that reimagine timeless toys and play patterns for the modern kid by leveling up the play – giving kids and their grown-ups a brand new way to engage.
With National STEM Day on November 8 and National STEAM Month taking place in November, chat with renowned podcast pioneers, New York Times- bestselling children’s book authors, and Wow in the World hosts Guy Raz and Mindy Thomas on how this innovative new line of STEM kits, dino play, and story time can bring a sense of “WOW” to your holidays and become a valuable part of play time.
For the first time ever, classic toys are paired with engaging companion audio – directly from Wow in the World podcast hosts Guy Raz and Mindy Thomas. As kids build, tinker, and play, with STEM kits from award-winning makers of premium STEM toys, Thames & Kosmos,they can listen to “bonkerballs” facts about the natural world – like how crystals and rainbows are related, why some plants glow in the dark, and how fossils formed. From rockets that ‘fart’ to dino-mite dinos, these toys fuse fun with hands-on STEM learning, giving kids and their grown-ups a totally new way to play. Additional toys including meticulously detailed dino-play figurines from toy and games-maker Goliath, and audio-play figurines from screen-free audio company tonies, allow kids to unleash their curiosity, and have a whole lot of fun along the way!
