As parents, we play a very important part in our children’s lives. We all have many roles to fill: provider, protector and mentor. But before all else, we are our children’s first teachers.

Early childhood is the critical phase in brain development. This is where we can help to inspire, support, and develop our children’s learning. Nurture the natural curiosity of our children at this stage. This is the best time to introduce STEM education.

Let’s face reality: STEM is everywhere. The fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) are in demand. But to engage our children in these fields, we must spark an early interest. We can open their eyes to the exciting prospects that STEM offers, and show them that STEM can be cool!

Parents provide an environment that values learning and places importance on quality education. We encourage our children’s curiosity and creativity. We help them develop as problem solvers and critical thinkers.

As kids, they imitate what we do and what we say. We tell them what is right from wrong. We want the best for our children in all aspects of their lives. We all want our children’s future secured, and the best way to do that is by investing in their education.

Where else would you send your children to have fun while learning?
