March 22, 2019
Coding, robotics, and physics, oh my! The STEM toys on display at the 116th International Toy Fair are helping children to prepare for an engineering future with robots and the digital environment.

The 116th Toy Fair in New York City continued the theme from previous years of blending engineering and toys. This year, there was a visible uptick in the number of coding toys. The future of the digital world is focused on the Internet of Things, the cloud, and robotics. Teaching coding to future scientists and engineers is now more important than ever. The fundamentals of engineering are also being repackaged into fun activities. With that in mind, here are some of the best sights from the 2019 Toy Fair.
