Let your little one explore, discover, and play with the science toys that are designed specifically for the preschool scientists. Preschool children love asking questions and love when parents or teachers help them to find answers. How does everything work? Why do we need a nose? What's inside the cloud? How does electric bulb light up? Why do people sneeze? How does a tree grow? and millions of other questions. Preschool science toys from Educational Toys Planet will not only assist kids, parents and teachers in searching for answers, but they will also give them ideas how to ask smart questions, learn from exploration of the world around us, and find new interests. What would you like to play with and learn about? Stars and planets? Dinosaurs? Vehicles and motors? Bugs and plants? Would you like to open your own lab and try mixing liquids, colors, and food ingredients? We can help your little curious minds with all of those! Our hands-on preschool science kits, electronic science toys, preschool optical tools, and other learning tools will evoke interest in science and promote learning!
