This unit highlights the importance of introducing STEM/STEAM education to young children by tapping into their natural curiosity and exploring the world around them. It provides two hands-on, play-based lessons that use simple materials for Early Learning Centers to implement - Leaf Investigators and Building a Balloon-Powered Car. The lessons focus on developing critical thinking skills, problem-solving, creativity, and collaboration.
