(BPT) - When school is out on break, many families look for ways to keep their children engaged while still encouraging learning. STEM — science, technology, engineering and math — activities can turn everyday moments into opportunities for discovery, helping build skills while having fun.
Research from the U.S. Department of Education suggests early exposure to STEM supports learning across subjects and helps children build important cognitive skills. Data also shows strong connections between early learning experiences and later academic and developmental outcomes. For example, a study published in the Journal of Experimental Child Psychology found that children's early experiences with play and learning activities can support the development of self-regulation and early reading and math abilities.
