Great STEM Toy That’s Perfect for Special Needs Kids

Having a child with special needs can be challenging at times, and even more so now during the pandemic because all his regular routines are broken. Our son has struggled so much more during all this chaos because he’s out of his regular routine. He’s on the edge, filled with lots of energy and limited opportunities to release it, and most importantly due to shipping issues he can’t get his favorite toys. JB is a huge fan of alphabets and numbers. It’s all he asks for every year for his birthday, Christmas, and as his rewards with some occasional blocks. We needed to find something to help JB to with keeping him engaged and busy.

I came across Blockaroo during a digital toy conference and when I saw it I knew it was the perfect toy for my son and other special needs children. The best part its educational as well. This STEM toy can help your child learn about building and it’s durable and can go everywhere with your child, even in the bath. I know when JB finds a toy he loves he takes it just about everywhere with him. I knew when he got his hands on these he would love them and take them everywhere. Thanks to The Toy Insider we got a sample in our Swag Box from #SweetSuiteatHome.

If you’re looking for a fun and durable toy for your special needs child, Blockaroo is a great option. It’s a creative option where kids can use their imagination to build all kinds of things and if they want to carry it in the tub, pool, or any type of water it’s safe. You can easily sanitize it when needed and it’s good to go again.

I love that they offer a few options so parents can expand and add more and more block sets. Even if you’re stuck buying them over and over again, your child can build bigger creations with the more sets they get. You can purchase Blockaroo sets on Amazon, start with a smaller set or get their largest set to start, it’s really up to you, but make sure it’s under the tree this holiday season.
