About Electroys

Electroys exists for one reason: to make it easy to give a gift that gets used and teaches something real.

The toy aisle, online or off, is overwhelming. There are thousands of “STEM” products, many of them knock-offs, many more that get played with once. Electroys is a deliberately short list, currently 92 picks, of kits, robots, science sets, building toys and games we would give to the kids in our own lives.

What you’ll find here

  • Picks for every age, from screen-free coding toys for three-year-olds to Arduino and Raspberry Pi kits for teens and young adults.
  • Plain-English explanations of what each product teaches, who it suits, and what to know before buying, like batteries, devices and how much adult help to expect.
  • Gift guides and a Kit Finder that do the narrowing down for you.

How we make money

When you buy through links on Electroys, we may earn a small commission from the retailer, mostly through the Amazon Associates program. It costs you nothing extra and it keeps the site running. It never decides what we recommend. Read our selection criteria and affiliate disclosure for the details.
