By the end of the day, Ms Avegail transforms the classroom into a laboratory. Children are no longer just playing; they are hunting for truth. They are weighing items using a scale, predicting outcomes, and learning the concepts of heavy and light.
This activity integrates all four pillars of STEM learning for early childhood development:
Science: Children observe gravity in action, track cause-and-effect relationships, and test hypotheses.
Technology: Young learners utilize a balance scale as a physical tool to measure data.
Engineering: Preschoolers predict results, test their ideas, and adjust the number of items to change outcomes.
Mathematics: Kids sort items by weight attributes, count units, and compare physical quantities.

Squishy, messy, and absolutely magical!
โจOur toddlers had the best time exploring sensory play with colorful homemade playdough with Ms Suman today.
Watch them roll, squish, stamp, and pokeโevery little movement is building strong hand muscles, boosting creativity, and developing fine motor skills.
We love seeing their brains and muscles grow through play! ๐ง ๐ช
Learning through play is the ultimate adventure! ๐จ๐ถ๐๏ธ
Our babies are completely captivated whenever it is storytime by Ms Sukjeet.
They lean in close, wide-eyed and smiling, hanging on every single word their teacher says.
From colorful picture books to funny character voices, these moments are building a lifelong love for reading and learning.
We love watching their imaginations grow! ๐๐ถโค๏ธ
