Synopsis

This is a book dedicated to STEM, but you will not find a 'how to' for setting up science, technology, engineering or math activities. What you will find is a deeper understanding of the complexities of children's play. The authors use real examples to demonstrate how, in an engaging environment with meaningful interactions, quality resources and a commitment to play, children will naturally explore STEM concepts.
