These toys are available at Target I was lucky enough to get them complimentary in exchange for my honest opinion and this blog post.
First one we opened was the Smithsonian Mars Dig Science Kit -
My entire family had a blast with this kit. My kids took turns chipping away to get to the Mars rocks. This was a super fun activity that lasted for a long time. It kept them occupied because everyone had to get their own rock. This is a very cute gift for anyone that is into STEM learning. I will probably grab a few more kits for Christmas, there is a large variety so something for everyone.
Description:
Chisel away at a sand block to unearth the same type of rocks found on Mars! This kit not only allows kids to be junior geologists, but also lets them assemble a scale model of the Mars Perseverance Rover, complete with wheels, antenna, and a robotic arm. Perseverance is the fifth rover to be sent to Mars and the first ever to bring a sample gathering system to collect rocks and sediments – all to be returned to Earth by a future NASA mission!
is a super strange feeling ball but it is a lot of fun. It is a larger version of the one below and I demand it be played with outside. It is not huge but it is a nice size. We all took turns tossing it around. It definitely is something you want to show off because of its uniqueness.

This set includes an educational 23” x 17” color STEM poster with information on Martian geology and space exploration. Ages 8+. Description It looks like a bubble and plays like a ball. And now it comes in a funkadelic tie-dye design that glows in the dark – in colors! Kids will laugh themselves silly with this amazing ball that wobbles, morphs and floats through the air like a bubble! Kick it, whack it, throw it, bounce it – even sit on it! Wubble Groovy in the Glo Wubble in New Valve Made from squishy, squashy, super soft and lightweight XpandiumTM, Groovy Glow Wubble is engineered to be gentle. It molds around whatever it hits – foot or face – then bounces away. Now with a new valve for easier inflation, Groovy Glow Wubble can be inflated by blowing into the patented, self-sealing valve with your mouth, using the included nozzle – or you can use almost any pump you have. Inflate it 24-30 inches for maximum strength and durability. Groovy Glow Wubble is fun to play with indoors or out, all year round. It deflates easily, so you can take it wherever you go! Expose it to bright light for at least 10 minutes to make it glow in the dark. When the glow fades, you can “recharge” it over and over again.
Ages 6+.
II was very excited to try the All Pro Passer Robotic Quarterback and it had to be the most fun toy! My son and daughter have been talking about joining the school football team. So, this was a VERY welcome addition to our outside toy collection. It was very easy to set up and use. It is LOUD at first when it sends the ball launching in the air. Scared the daylights out of me and a couple of my daughters. But it is a very interesting learning tool. It can be just for fun on a pretty day or used to help better your game. It's lightweight so very portable. So great for picnics and other outings!
Description:

My daughter couldn't wait to rip into the Wubble Tiny Groovy in the Glo Assorted Wubble box. I am going to be honest I didn't see the hype but when I started playing with them I understood. It's a strange feeling ball but it's really cool and we had a lot of fun tossing it around. This one is small enough to play in the house. It kept my teenagers and my littles ( 7 & 5) entertained for a while so I would say a win.
