Phoenix, AZ – The Learning Journey designs and develops award winning, high quality, educational toys and games that teach children basic learning through fun and activities. At New York Toy Fair 2018, The Learning Journey will launch a complete line of new products that will be available throughout the year. Highlights of those products include:
CODE & LEARN LADY BUG
The new Code & Learn Lady Bug will introduce kids to basic programming and coding and they won’t even know it! The Code & Learn Lady Bug has two modes to play. In the first mode, children use the coding card deck and color grid map to challenge your child to find the right path to a destination by entering directional instructions into the remote control. Hit go and they will know they have gone to the right space when the antennae of the ladybug lights up with the color of the mat square they land on. If it matches the card, they are correct!
The second mode allows your child to “drive” the remote-control playmate around for free-wheeling fun. This fun and educational coding toy teaches sequencing, directions, problem solving and logic and aligns with the Science, Technology, Engineering and Math standards (STEM). The Code & Learn line also includes the Code & Learn Space Ship.
For ages 5+ and available in April 2018.
TECHNO GEARS DIZZY DROID
Kids love to construct, and the Techno Gears Dizzy Droid is the perfect way to encourage them to build. With its 80+ colorful construction pieces, power motor and more, this kit includes everything your child needs to build his own droid with motorized gears. The mechanics of the droid include gears and will introduce a child to the science of gear ratio. Because the Techno Gears Dizzy Droid challenges problem solving skills, expands mechanics and engineering knowledge and inspires creativity, it aligns with the Science, Technology, Engineering and Math standards (STEM).
For ages 6+ years and available May 2018.
