23 Best Toys Offers in Cyber ​​Monday (2021): STEM Toys and Technology for Kids

Amazon, Target

This game is $ 3 cheaper than it was when we first saw it on sale. A pandemic came out in 2017 and although it’s a bit tense these days, it’s still one of the best board games for families. Up to four players will have to work together to develop a strategy and save the world from a deadly disease. (Did we mention it’s a bit on the nose?)

Purpose,, Amazon (exhausted)

One of our favorite family board games, Riding ticket challenges you to draw rail routes in North America. Recommended for children over the age of 8, as it has a lot of strategy and a little math, but it doesn’t take much time to play and is a lot of fun. Ticket for Ride Europe also retails for $ 18.

Creating matching tile groups to get the maximum possible score from your game board sounds simple, but Azul has enough strategic depth to challenge your kids’ math, planning and puzzle solving skills. This is another of our choices for the best family board games.

Offers for tablets and Kindle

For reading, swallowing educational applications, playing games or watching documentaries, the tablet can be an excellent purchase for children. While you can read on tablets, e-readers are more comfortable for the eyes and allow parents to ensure that their children read rather than play. See our guide to the best baby tablets for more options.

Amazon,, Purpose,, Best buy

A portable tablet with protective armor, a one-year subscription to Amazon Kids + and a two-year warranty for a carefree change contribute a lot to families with young children (8/10, WIRED recommends). There are many educational applications and games, videos and books, as well as solid parental controls.

If your kids are getting a little older for the “baby tablet” with rubber bumper, this is an upgrade that you wouldn’t mind seeing them hold. It offers the same benefits as the smaller HD 8, including educational content from such as National Geographic, Rabbids Coding and LEGO. And it still has a protective case, although it’s a little more elegant and has a comfortable stand.

This small, lightweight e-book reader (7/10, WIRED recommends) is the ideal size for kids and comes with a foldable cover, one year on Amazon Kids + and a promise that Amazon will replace it if it breaks within two years. It’s easy to download ebooks or just browse them from your local library.

An upgrade to the basic Kids Kindle above, the Paperwhite boasts the same benefits, but also has a backlit screen for reading in low light or at night and the ability to withstand brief immersion in water.

Speaker deals

The children’s version of Amazon Echo Dot gets a cute animal makeover like a tiger or panda. It is a full-fledged intelligent speaker that allows children to ask Alexa questions, play music, listen to audiobooks and even try educational skills. Like the rest of Amazon’s Kids range, it comes with a one-year subscription to Amazon Kids + ($ 3 a month thereafter), solid parental controls and a two-year worry-free warranty.

The price of this dropped to $ 65 and unfortunately returned to $ 100. With songs and stories featuring some of your children’s favorite Disney and Pixar characters, this durable, child-friendly speaker is a great alternative to screens. The children place a plastic figurine, like Woody from Toy Story, at the top of the speaker to trigger related content. Additional packages with other hero links are available for everything from Disney princesses to Street sezam characters. You can also record your own stories and songs or get grandparents to record so they can read to your little ones from afar. The basic Toniebox Starter Set is also available for $ 70 ($ 30 discount) on Amazon.
