Toyish Labs launches Clixo Classroom Online Portal to help bring Clixo into classrooms

Toyish Labs has launched its Clixo Classroom Online Portal, desiged to help teachers and educators incorporate Clixo into classroom activities.

Via the portal, teachers and educators across the US can access resources, free lesson plans, video challenges and activity guides that incorporate Clixo.

The portal is part of the new Clixo Classroom initiative which includes the recently launched Clixo Classroom Pack. The Clixo Classroom Pack comes with 100 Clixo pieces, allowing children to play and build together. It was designed in collaboration with educators specifically for group and classroom settings to encourage hands-on STEAM learning.

The pack also includes an educator guide, a poster with building instructions, and 32 activity cards that ‘foster collaboration, boost creative confidence and empower innovation’.

Toyish Labs has also launched the Clixo Educator Ambassador Program, where teachers and educators have been invited to work alongside the Clixo team to create Clixo activities with their students.

The first round of the Educator Ambassador Program was completed in March 2024, where seven teachers, educators, and occupational therapists tested the Clixo Classroom pack with their students and developed new ways to use Clixo. The second round of the Educator Ambassador Program will launch this summer.

“After bringing the joy of Clixo to so many kids and hearing amazing feedback from teachers, we knew we had to create more resources to help educators bring creative play to their students,” said Assaf Eshet, Founder of Toyish Labs and creator of Clixo.

“Not only does the Classroom Pack foster STEAM learning through creativity and connectivity, but Clixo’s Universal Design allows for inclusive play, meaning all children can collaborate and equally succeed in building.

“We are thrilled to support educators with the Ambassador Program and Online Portal and are excited to hear more feedback on how teachers are using Clixo and how we can further improve the learning and classroom environment.”

Andy Yung, a Pre-K Teacher and Clixo Education Ambassador, added: “The Clixo Classroom Pack is a robust educational tool that marries creativity with learning. Its emphasis on open-ended play, coupled with its potential to enhance language and cognitive skills, makes it a valuable asset in the Pre-K classroom setting,.

“Additionally, being part of the Educator Ambassador Program was a rewarding experience, connecting me with like-minded educators and offering valuable tools to elevate learning with Clixo. It allowed me to gain insights and discover creative ways to incorporate Clixo into my teaching, ultimately enriching my students’ educational experiences.”
