- I would like to think that I am an avid fan of constructive education (referred to hereafter as edutainment), where a child can physically interact with objects that are designed with this idea of enhancing the learning process in its early stages and inspiring great passion for science and technology; this has been a very popular notion as the years have progressed and as more edutainment tools show up in the classrooms. This leads me to my question: edutainment has grown expansively well since its introduction into classrooms, but what about children who are home-schooled? Do you think there is a possibility to create edutainment tools for the home-schooled? Where would this focus be (e.g. toys on a playground, carry-along toys)?
