My Take on GraviTrax
GraviTrax is a very cool product that brings together fun, science, critical thinking and more. My daughters and I loved this as it challenged us to think beyond the book that they gave us to create some runs for the balls to maneuver. You have to think strategically to see how the ball will traverse the course and at times you have to make adjustments to correct some of the issues that you initially thought would work. GraviTrax does give you and your kids a book that you can follow to get a feel for the tracks that you can create with their help, but then the sky is the limit when it comes to the courses that you wish to create. All-in-all, this was a very fun product that I would recommend to all!

I might try and teach STEM concepts to children by using paperclips and or different objects. PBS has some great specials on the subject of gravity and its properties on the Internet.
