STEM now starts from 3yr which is the right age to introduce STEM Education to your child. Learn more about STEM Education and why it matters for children.

STEM Education, a term initiated by the National science Foundation is an educational approach which focuses on one or more of the four disciplines of science, technology, engineering, and math. In an era when technical and scientific skills are increasingly important in the work force, exposing children to STEM learning in the early years is key. Currently, It is important to ensure that girls as well as boys are exposed to and encouraged in the area of STEM.

What is STEM Activities for Kids

Play with water. Water is a rich STEM material and Water play activities is a great way to engage kids. Provide a basin of water outside so you don’t have to worry about spills. Provide tools to experiment with like a turkey baster, empty dish detergent bottles, plastic measuring cups, etc. to fill and compare. Skills used: math and science .The possibilities for STEM education are endless

STEM Activities for Preschoolers and school-Agers

Basically STEM tries t o  answer the curiosity of the child when he see buildings, bridges, roads, cash register and  wonders about there objects-who made them, how it is made, what is important while making thses,etc. infact the story of 3 little pigs is itself an excellent example of stem thought process.
