The STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) toy scene has seen a major upswing in the last few years. Now, Elemental Path is introducing their latest CogniToy, the STEMosaur, a  plastic dinosaur that can talk to your kids, tell them jokes and stories, quiz them, and answer some basic questions.

What is special about the dinosaur is that it is heavily customizable by the kids through an online coding panel, which is a simple browser-based flow chart that teaches kids the building blocks of programming with triggers and responses.

To add some engineering expertise, the toy first has to be assembled out of eight parts.
