STEM in the Early Years at Little Kids’ Day In
Children are naturally curious. Right from birth, children are wondering and exploring, watching and listening, moving and feeling. Skills in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) are increasingly recognised as vital for all children’s learning. Children naturally use STEM skills like curiosity and experimentation as they explore the world around them, especially through play.
Our Little Kids’ Day In programs are developed to maximise play-based STEM learning in the context of real-world scenarios. We developed the following posters as a reminder for how children are learning STEM skills while they are playing.
Baby Sensory
We’re excited to be teaming up with Baby Sensory for some of our 2022 sessions! Baby Sensory delivers specialised sessions that introduce you and your baby to a world of sensory delights, where you can relax, spend quality time with each other and enjoy meeting other new parents.
Little Kids’ Day In is perfect for kids aged 5 and under, their parents and carers.
