To stop their little ones from becoming “screen-obsessed kids”, parents are actively looking for offline activities like puzzles and games. The direct-from-factory platform, Temu, is helping them in their quest by providing a plethora of cost-effective activities that parents can engage their children with.
Mimi, a mum of three, for example, bought jigsaw puzzles from Temu to keep her kids engaged. She shared her story on Instagram and showed how her kids are having an absolute blast without relying on screens. She says, "I love keeping my children engaged with a variety of puzzles, it's a great way to build their problem-solving skills, patience, and creativity!"
Many of those who saw her post were filled with excitement themselves, and her comments are flooded with fellow parents who are eager to buy the puzzle for their kids.
Another savvy mum @wilderandsalem, took to Instagram to share her way of keeping her kids engaged while ensuring their cognitive development. She bought a bunch of educational toys from Temu, including a finger felt math board, a draw-and-erase tablet, a discovery cube, alphabet fridge magnets, and a hungry caterpillar threading game.
Talking about her and her kids' experience with the toys, she wrote on Instagram, "Temu has the BEST educational toys for 1/3 of the price of these Montessori sites. My boys are obsessed with all of these." She even bought toys for bath time, such as the bath time marble run.
Her followers loved the toys too, and the comments section is filled with people thanking her for the recommendations.
