STEAM Gift Ideas for Kids

The holiday season is right around the corner. Sometimes it’s difficult to find gifts for our beloved littles. Maybe you want something they’ll love. Or you want to keep them entertained for a while. Maybe you’ve got those covered and you want to get them something to learn or encourage their creativity. STEAM projects and toys are a great way to achieve these goals.

STEAM (sometimes STEM) stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics. It is a hands-on learning system. STEAM is designed to encourage critical thinking, problem-solving, curiosity, and decision-making.
