Learning Toys and Activities

The toys and activities shown were designed to teach different Biology based topics, meant for 3rd to 8th grade students in Indian classrooms. These products have been used by over 50,000 students across India. 

The idea is that while a teacher teaches a particular topic from the book, each child gets one activity box which will teach them about the topic in an engaging and explorative way. 

And once you "play" while learning, you are never going to forget it. :)
This one is a DIY activity for 8th grade children to learn about different methods of irrigation. They get to make their own Drip and Sprinkle Irrigation systems and grow their own real plant! They also get little farm tools to plow and till the soil.
This one is a DIY activity for 3rd grade children to learn about different types of plant and their parts. They create 3D models of different plant and solve fun puzzles.

Fun Fact: All activities are made to be under Rs.50/- Less than 1 dollar so that students from all strata of schools can benefit from it :)
This one is a "serious" fun activity for 8th grade children to learn about reproduction in plants. They dissect a flower and create their own cool herbarium to display individual plant parts.
This one is an observational activity for 5th grade children to learn about the different types of soil and their properties. They create a model that helps them live test and track the percolation and permeability of different soil. They also get to see how soil is formed in nature by a fun freezer activity.
This activity is for 4th grade students. It's all about the uses of soil and how it's made. They get to solve a puzzle that answers the uses of soil and it's layers. They also get to create their own soil profile!

in India education system has largely been about mugging up facts and scoring in tests. These are few of the 300 activities designed in an attempt to help change the educational learning by making it more experiential and long lasting.
