Wonder Workshops specializes in the unique, hard to find, nostalgic toys and puzzles one remembers from their childhood. Teachers, librarians, parents, and grandparents can find all those treasures that they want to share with the children in their lives. From science novelties such as glass drinking birds, radiometers, magic crystal growing trees, gyroscopes, hot air balloons, Slinky and Slinky Dogs, magnetic toys, and Silly Putty to metal and wooden puzzles, magic tricks, origami books (specializing in dollar bill folding), as well as science and math activity books, videos, DVDs, and CDs, we have a treasure trove of fun, exciting, and, dare I say it, educational items.

      Our specialty is handmade glass radiometers, drinking birds, and Cartesian Divers (Water Imps) direct from European artisans. Not only are these handmade pieces exquisitely produced, but they make a welcome discussion and thought provoking addition to one's home, office, or classroom. Simply beautiful!

      Our wooden and metal puzzles are popular with adults and children alike! Teachers use them in classrooms across the country to provoke problem solving skills and capabilities in their students, while others just enjoy the thrill of the solution chase. These toys are also proving popular with businesses as promotional items given away at tradeshows, conferences, and meetings. You can bet that folks will remember your company, slogan, and you, as they spend time working their way to the conclusion and pass the mystery onto friends and colleagues. Yes, large quantity discounts on wooden and metal conundrums, as well as the handmade glass radiometers and drinking birds are available. Please inquire!

      The origami items are truly unique! Specializing in dollar bill folding, we've searched far and wide to bring together both classic and current origami books of interest. You'll find challenging figure material from Lang and Montroll, as well as origami dollar bill folding texts by Randlett, Neale, Caruba, and others! Many of the books are not available to the general public, but were published for the magic and allied performing arts trade. We are your direct source!

      In the video, DVD, and cd area, our selection of the hard to find is well known! Here you'll find teacher's classics such as Bell Science's Hemo the Magnificent and Our Mr. Sun, Disney's Our Friend the Atom and the nostalgic Man in Space series, the Rube Goldberg envy The Way Things Go, Dr. Seuss's The Lorax, and even Dame Edna's rendition of Peter and the Wolf (absolutely gorgeous music!). Several of these videos, DVDs, and cds are on limited availability, so check them out now!

      Our other treasures? Well, they're just too numerous to mention. Please, take this invitation to stroll through our site and acquaint yourself with all of the wonders that we offer. I'm sure the nostalgia will build and you'll be wondering, "Now where on Earth did they find that? I haven't seen one of those in years." Well, now you have!
