We are a science preschool based on a research-based curriculum utilizing the engineering design process with a specific framework to guide its development to ensure high-quality science technology engineering and math (STEM) education in early childhood. "The early childhood years, birth to age 5, have long been accepted as the most critical point in neurological or brain development. Studies by the National Science Teachers Association show that young children learn through active exploration—and the drive to observe, interact, discover, and explore is inherent in their development. And it is during these years that many in the education community believe that evidenced-based STEM curricula should begin, setting children on a path to develop a love of scientific inquiry.""During the earliest years, infants and toddlers develop 700 neural connections every second," according to scientists. "These biologically driven neurological processes and natural curiosity of how the world works make early childhood an optimal time to introduce children to scientific inquiry."The rise of the digital age has made science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education more critical than ever. Early STEM education will determine your child's preparation for the 21st century. The research shows that children who learn STEM concepts throughout their education are better prepared to meet increasingly technology, science, and engineering-focused future professional requirements.
