Learning STEM Skills can begin at home

engage your kids’ natural curiosity to help them engage with science, technology, engineering, and math

Students today are being exposed to more and more STEM-related learning skills than ever before. STEM is an acronym for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. For many parents, seeking out STEM-based learning for young children can feel a bit out of their comfort zone, but it doesn’t have to be. Young children are naturally curious, and educational opportunities are obtainable right in their own homes.

Simple STEM examples that can be done in home including cooking, shopping, planning a field trip or family vacation, exploring the backyard, gardening, science projects, measuring, remodeling, building a tree house, creating with Legos, and so much more! It’s really that simple.

Sylvan Learning Centers across the world support STEM learning, and locally we are delighted to offer advanced STEM programs throughout the year in Robotics, Coding, and Math Edge for grades 2-6. Have fun and enjoy STEM with your children!
