Space exploration fuels our children's curiosity and imagination! Space captures children’s imagination with its rockets, moon landings and different planets and stars. Children love looking up at the sky and wondering about the phenomena we can see, what we know of and leaves them with questions about the vast ever changing landscape of space!

Play that is inspired by space allows children to explore, wonder and ask questions! As they learn it sparks imagination and ignites curiosity– learning about space is all about the unknown, the ‘what if?’ s and the questions the known and unknown about the universe. It helps children become creative thinkers, to challenge current theories and to question uncertainties. Learning about space also helps children develop an interest in our planet! Learning about its origins, how we can care for it to ensure it stays healthy and sustainable for all life on earth. As they learn, it helps children understand the importance of looking after planet earth. What can we do to help the planet? How can we include sustainable choices in our everyday lives?

The play based toys and activities on this list will help inspire your child's sense of wonder and help them learn more about space!

The toys on this list are more than just a great gift.
