Cultivate curiosity this Christmas

Grandparents can help nurture inquisitive young minds and encourage curiosity through their choice of Christmas presents this festive season.

For toys that will help young minds grow and develolp, head to Techzone in Yarra Street Geelong, which has an abundance of options to choose from for aspiring Einsteins.

Owner Robert Stokes hand picks each product, selecting toys that will inspire children to learn through play.

“It’s about growing their minds and having fun. We want our toys to ignite a passion,” Mr Stokes said.

When entering Techzone, you’ll see a wide variety of quality STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) toys lining the shelves, intended to be used over and over again.

To name a few, customers can choose from battlebots, remote controlled cars, solar robots, chemistry sets and Vex Robotics sets.

“It’s great for kids to get off the iPad and learn some proper STEM skills, there’s a lot of classic engineering and figuring out the gears, it’s about theoretical learning, but with hands-on skills,” Mr Stokes explained.

Confident there’s something for everyone, the Techzone team has great advice available in store to help make up your mind.

“People can come in and get advice, not just a sale,” Mr Stokes said.

“We’ll ask them the child’s age and find a gift that’s really appropriate for them. We strive to make that match.”

Techzone is not just for kids. There’s an impressive selection of Pokémon products and an array of sensory items on offer, from stress balls to fidget friendly items and everything is honestly priced.

“We never add any surcharge, it’s retail as it’s meant to be, nice and honest,” Mr Stokes said.

Keeping with its “nice and honest” philosophy, Techzone’s refund policy is easy to navigate and incredibly helpful leading up to Christmas.

Just make sure you have your receipt on hand in store and a full refund can be provided, or a store credit.

Pay Techzone a visit instore or online to find a Christmas present to remember and not just another back of the cupboard throw away.
