A Total Hit with the Whole Family!

I grabbed this book to sneak some learning into screen-free time, and it totally worked. My kids couldn’t stop reading the crazy-cool facts out loud, and honestly, I was just as hooked. From weird tech inventions to surprising moments in history, it covers so much without being boring. It’s become our go-to for car rides and bedtime chats. If you’ve got curious kids (or you're one yourself), this book is a fun little treasure trove.

Got my kid off the tablet

I wanted something fun and smart for my daughter that didn’t involve a screen. This book actually worked. She started asking questions about how robots work and even tried one of the little projects in it. It made her think in new ways, and I could tell she was really into it. She even brought up stuff she learned when we were talking at dinner. It’s been cool to see her excited about learning again.

Very Interesting Book

Honestly, this book was such a fun surprise. My kid usually zones out with anything educational, but this one actually kept him hooked! He started asking questions about robots and space after just one chapter. Super cool way to sneak in learning without a screen—big win for us.

Kids Learning Technology

Technology is changing the way we handle things around here. Children are fortunate to be born into a world where advanced technology makes their lives easier and faster. For example, if you are into Science or math, you have tools on the internet or AI that can help you explain how to answer a math question. This can assist high school students, especially those in computer science. Microsoft Visual Basic programming was a course that I struggled with, but I enjoyed learning it, and this audiobook serves as a helpful refresher.

Perfect for kids

I loved this book for my grandchildren. It is perfect to get them away from screens, which, of course, is an issue in today's society. Full of fun facts that encourage kids to explore and experiment. Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math are covered, as well as fun facts that my grandkids just soak up. Recommend if you want to get your kids learning, not just sitting mindlessly on screens.

STEM That Actually Hooks Kids

I grabbed this hoping to get my kid off the tablet—and it worked better than I expected.

I love that it introduces real-world STEM concepts in a fun, easy-to-understand way. The DIY projects were a hit too. If you’re looking for something smart, screen-free, and engaging for your kids, this one totally delivers.

Screen-Free Fun That Actually Sticks

I picked this up hoping for a screen-free win—and it delivered. My kids were instantly hooked by the fun facts and stories, and honestly, so was I. It covers everything from space travel to smart homes in a way that feels exciting and easy to follow. The best part? They’ve been bringing up what they learned at dinner and even tried one of the DIY projects. Great for curious minds and a solid way to sneak in learning without the eye rolls.

Way more fun than I expected!

I grabbed this on a whim for a road trip, thinking it might be a decent time-killer—but I ended up actually loving it. The facts are super cool and not the usual stuff you hear all the time. I found myself bringing them up in random conversations after. It’s easy to follow, fast-paced, and surprisingly entertaining. Perfect if you’re into tech, trivia, or just want something fun that doesn’t feel like a lecture.

Brilliant for Screen Free Time!

We are learning now that too much screen time can be harmful for kids and potentially leading to issues like ADHD. Having and audiobook like this is amazing as the kids can listen to these amazing facts and read them out loud. They don't need to look at a screen. Christian covers some fascinating topics like medical innovations, how technology and entertainment intersect and the science of smart homes. Growing up in today’s modern world, having as much information to hand about technology as possible will get kids interested and give them a head start in early life. There is so much incredible knowledge to be found here!
