Exploring STEM in Early Years

Exploring STEM in Early Years is an engaging collection of seven board books designed to ignite a love for science in the youngest learners. Featuring titles such as Bath Time Physics, High Chair Chemistry, Playtime Engineering, Stroller Ecology, and more, this set introduces toddlers to fundamental concepts across physics, chemistry, ecology, engineering, anatomy, and general science. Each book uses familiar daily activities—like bath time or mealtime—as a springboard for discovery, with bright visuals, humorous commentary, and child-centred design. These books make abstract STEM ideas tangible and fun, laying the foundation for scientific thinking through real-world, relatable experiences. A valuable addition to any early learning library or home bookshelf.
