Description & Educational Value of Ivy Kids Book-Inspired STEM Kits

Ivy Kids is an award-winning, literature-centered subscription-box company that creates book-inspired STEM kits for children ages 3-9. Each Ivy Kids kit includes a carefully selected, highly-rated children's book and over 12 fun, creative, and unique hands-on activities that are based upon the monthly story and characters. Each Ivy Kids kit uses literature as the central component for teaching across various subjects. Every kit includes 12-15 math, science, literacy, art, and engineering activities which are all connected to the featured book of the month. A detailed curriculum to guide in completing the activities and meeting the various learning goals is also included. 

Ivy Kids kits promote the development of foundational math and literacy skills, creativity, problem solving, and critical thinking through play and exploration. Every Ivy Kids kit includes a new book, guided learning instructions, bookmark reading guide, story retelling accessories, board games, literacy activities, science fact boards, crafting materials, art projects, math manipulatives, science experiments, engineering challenges, and many more activities inspired by the book of the month. 

Each Ivy Kids kit provides adults with questions to structure a child’s learning, as well as instructions on how to modify games to best suit each individual child. There are enough games and materials in each kit to engage and to stimulate a child cognitively throughout the month. Furthermore, the games can be replayed for years to come. To assure the quality of every kit, each activity has been tested and enjoyed by young children. Everything you need to read, play, create, and learn is included in the kit and conveniently delivered right to you each month!
