When we were little, our parents gave us building blocks to play with that have letters of the alphabet on them. I guess it turns out children have a much higher IQ nowadays, as the Periodic Table Building Blocks have been created. If children are jumping from the alphabet to chemistry at such an early age, I may as well call it quits.

Seriously though, this is a little intense for the little tots in your life, but who knows, maybe this subconscious method of teaching will actually stick with kids. This set features 20 blocks and has every single element of the periodic table on them. And I don’t just meant the letters. They went full out with their names, atomic numbers, and symbols. For only $40, it may even be worth it for those of us who are still trying to remember all of the elements.
