What is STEM?

STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. Gaining in popularity over the last 10-15 years or so, STEM is a curriculum that focuses on teaching these four subjects in an integrated and hands-on way.

STEM education is becoming increasingly important as we move towards a more technology-driven society. We have STEM class at school, and we love it! By participating in STEM activities, we develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and analytical skills that will help us well in the future. Not only that, but STEM education is also a lot of fun!

Look through the list and find the DIY Easter STEM challenge that is right for you! Then, print the labels and gather the supplies! You will need small plastic bags and a stapler to attach the bag toppers. These are mini-toppers so the smaller bags work well. We used sandwich bags in our pictures, but the Ziplock snack bags would work well as would typical small treat bags from the party supply section.

The number of items you place in each bag is up to you. It will depend on how long you want the challenge to last. For example, with the Easter egg tower challenge, the more supplies you provide, the bigger the towers can be.
