STEM subjects are often the foundations of a child’s development and will help them with their understanding of a lot of things that happen in our world. It’s a great subject area for your child to discover and how it can help your child become better connected to their studies and their enjoyment of studies.
In this guide from an independent school in Sloane Square, here are some ways you can explore STEM subjects with your child.
To bake a cake you need a lot of little ingredients to allow it to work, as well as plenty of instructions to carefully follow. For a child, baking a cake is heaps of fun, so use it as a way of showing your child how it relates to the world of STEM.
For one, your child will be calculating each amount of ingredients they need and will need to put the mixture in at the right temperature for it to cook properly – a science-related method. The end result makes for a happy child eating cake and greater awareness of STEM.
A lot of products and features are made thanks to STEM, like plasters for when a child falls over by accident and your child’s favourite scooter. They all have considerations and safety concerns when it comes to being a part of STEM. The more you show your child about the many things the world has to offer, the greater their awareness of how many things have been made thanks to progress in technology and science.
Games can also involve funky experiments and activities in the great outdoors. Water play is a great way of showing a toddler how water works in an area. Bugs and creatures to draw are always good fun for kids. As your child grows older you can add more elaborate games like experiments.
