Today's parents have much more at their disposal in terms of educational innovations and products than parents of years past. Technology has provided the modern parent with educational tools like iPhone apps and toddler touchscreens, while society has made the teaching of certain issues such as poverty and racism just as important as the teaching of subjects like math or science.
The list of educational innovations for kids today is wide and varied. Some parents may find that they want to use toys to teach kids about the environment or an interactive game to develop their child's motor skills. Still others might rely on their tablets for a fun and engaging app about the alphabet.
Regardless of the method or product, there is no denying that these modern educational innovations have changed learning and the market for children's educational products.
