Try-a-box Strictly Briks

I had the opportunity to try Rubik's Briks from Strictly Briks and Tryazon. What an amazing opportunity. These products were fun and engaging. They have different level of products for different ages and some were quite challenging.

The boys and I had a fun time trying them at home. This was a huge hit. I especially enjoyed putting together the more challenging puzzles and mosaics.

I brought these to school to see how some of my fast finishing fifth graders would like them. They were a hit there. Even some of the "easier" puzzles engaged my students. They had a fun time putting them 
together.

Orb Slime Time thanks to Tryazon

The biggest hit though was the Elasti Plasti.  https://elastiplasti.com/   This has provided lots of fun and creative play with the kids.  Whether it is a contest to see who can blow the biggest bubble or the sheer joy of the noises it creates when putting it back in the jar, it is a HIT! My favorite was the  Braini Putti . I found it very therapeutic.  I liked how  malleable it was.  I think this would be a great putti to have in the classroom.  It clean up easy, it snaps, bounces, melts, and is overall just cool.  I think my students would enjoy ...
