World Philosophy Day approaches, celebrated on the third Thursday of November, (21st) it’s a great reminder for parents and caregivers to cultivate a curious and questioning mindset in children. While philosophy might sound complex for little ones, fostering critical thinking, inquiry, and exploration is highly achievable—and deeply valuable—even in early childhood. Using Edx Education’s play-based learning toys, such as Rainbow Pebbles®, My Gears®, construction sets, and other STEAM products, you can inspire children to think independently, ask questions, and become resilient problem-solvers.

As parents and caregivers, we all want our children to grow up happy, resilient, and confident. One of the most powerful tools at our disposal to help our children develop these qualities is play. Play is not just a way for children to pass the time it is a critical part of their learning and growth.

At Edx Education, we advocate for play-based learning, not only through our innovative educational toys but also through our Play, Learn & Create podcast, which offers practical tips and insights for caregivers and educators alike.
