Top Toys for Learning List:

Squaregles

Squaregles are basically magnetic building pieces. Kids can build structures, so they learn about architecture and engineering. They come in a variety of set sizes, options, and price points.

Clawsome

Kids can learn scientific principles like buoyancy with the Clawsome toy. It is sort of retro, harkening back to the classic arcade claw games.

#Boneless

Get your kids excited about physics with the #Boneless super-charged skateboarders. They skate and do tricks that seem to defy physics and promise hours of fun.

DeLoach offers other toys for kids of all ages and options for non-traditional learners in the Hub Today segment above.
