Help Your Kids Learn & Love STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math)

Helping your kids learn and love STEM subjects (science, technology, engineering, and math)  often feels like a chore. And for some, it can seem overwhelming, especially if you didn't do so well in those subjects when you were younger.

But today, the educational landscape has changed. STEM is taught in a much more hands-on, interactive way. As a parent, taking advantage of opportunities to help your child learn and love these subjects can be as simple as visiting a local children's museum, taking your kids rock climbing, or talking about gravity when a spill occurs instead of hurrying to wipe it up.
