Best Gadgets for Kids That Encourage Learning

Please Share!

Technology is making it easier than ever before for kids to access information and learn about the world around them. Whether it’s a device for reading or a gadget that allows them to hone certain skills, the choices on the market are endless. If you’re looking for a gadget that provides the best of learning and entertainment, below are some options.

Kids e-Reader

e-Readers, like the Amazon Kindle, can be a great way to encourage your kids to read. The kid-friendly versions come with fun and colorful covers, and they also have a huge selection of books to choose from.

While these can be slightly more expensive—including the case, subscription, and guarantee—the investment is worth it. Not only will it prompt your kids to read; it means that they can take their favorite stories with them wherever they go.

Apple iPad Mini

When it comes to kids, iPads are often used for watching movies. However, they can also be used for kids coding tutorials, educational games for kids, or for activities like drawing (since the iPad Mini is compatible with the Apple Pencil).

The benefit of the Mini is that it’s smaller and easier to handle, which is perfect for kids who are a bit younger. If you want to give your kids a gadget that they can use for both entertainment and education, an iPad mini will do the trick.

Lego Sets

What kid doesn’t love Lego? These plastic building blocks have been entertaining kids of all ages for over 80 years. With so many different objects and scenes to choose from, Lego provides hours of fun while helping kids develop their spatial and tactile skills.

Other sets such as the Next Generation Lego train set come with technology that can be paired with a smartphone to control the train’s direction and speed. This electric set is a fantastic way to teach kids about principles such as to cause and effect. 

PIPER Build-Your-Own Computer Kit

In keeping with the building concept, kids can now build their own computer from scratch. Made from sustainable wood, Piper’s award-winning kit was designed by STEAM educators and helps teach kids about the world of engineering, coding, and creativity.

The kit also comes with connecting wires and buttons that they can then use to learn the basics of electronics. To build the kit, kids follow a blueprint, and the finished product allows them to play computer games and learn about coding.

Digital Drawing Board

If your kid is a budding artist, a digital drawing board may just be what they need. While there are a lot of these on the market, some are similar to tablets that come with a digital pen. Alternatively, Crayola also has a drawing lightboard that allows kids to trace an image by removing the back panel, or they can draw their own design.

When they’re finished, they can light up their work for display or they can use lighting options to draw in the dark. The set also comes with easy-to-wipe washable gel markers.
