STEM

 

This month, we're excited to focus on STEM, which stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. Introducing STEM in early years allows children to spark their curiosity about the world of shapes, materials, forces, and numbers. Engaging with STEM at a young age helps children develop core skills such as critical thinking, problem-solving, collaborative learning, memory skills, and communication.

STEM education in the early years lays the foundations for future learning by encouraging exploration and experimentation. Whether it's through building structures with blocks, observing how plants grow, or playing with numbers, these experiences help children develop essential cognitive and social skills. Early exposure to STEM encourages a love for learning, promotes resilience, and fosters a mindset that embraces innovation and adaptability.
