Smart Start STEM PreK

Develop problem-solving and critical thinking skills with Smart Start STEM PreK. Using challenges and activities to engage your child in fun hands-on projects, each of the fourteen units includes stories and worksheets to help your child understand the scientific concepts. And these will lay the foundation for completing each STEM challenge.


The simple worksheets are colorful and appealing, and the STEM challenges reinforce the lesson. Most challenges require regular household items, but logical substitutes can be utilized when your household is missing a critical element.


Smart Start STEM PreK includes leading questions for you to ask your child to help them move from problems to solutions. If you want a science program that encourages critical thinking without much seatwork, this is an excellent resource. Topics in Smart Start STEM PreK include earth, life, and physical science.

    Enjoyed!

    My pre-k child enjoyed this book. It was a great introduction to a lot of science concepts and pairs well with the Usborne My Very First Science book.
