The Learning Journey International Magnetic Spell and Learn Board


The Learning Journey International

Who says educational toys have to be dull? The Learning Journey International is well-known for their award-winning learning toys - the selection is endless! Just browse their online shop and you'll see what I mean.

Z will be 3 soon and we're getting in the habit of having him spell out simple words by pointing out each letter. He really loves his letters and was excited when I showed him the Magnetic Spell and Learn Board.

The Learning Journey International
The board is pretty much an all-in-one toy that is easy to take anywhere. The pieces are stored in the compartment attached to the board. The storage helps kids learn to clean up after they are done. One downside is that it's difficult for Z to put all the pieces away because they have to be completely flat and connected in order for the door to close. 


The Learning Journey International Magnetic Spell and Learn Board includes 40 letters and 10 magnetic pictures. It is recommended for ages 3 and up.

With bath time being one of my son's favorite things to do, it's no wonder his bath toy stash keeps growing and growing. One of the newest additions to his collection is Nuby's Splash n' Catch Bath Time Fishing Set.

The toy set includes a net and four sea animals that float.

Z has a blast scooping up the sea animals and the rest of his bath toys. The four characters can even be linked together.

One of the educational features this toy has is to improve hand-eye coordination. It's also BPA-free.

The Nuby Splash n' Catch Fishing set is not limited to just the bathtub - it can be used in outdoor play and the pool.
