Most parents are familiar with STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) education. But did you know that STEM and language skills start with babies? We need to encourage this learning early on with our babies. There are certain things that parents can do to help.
Today, I’m chatting with Dr. Aimee Ketchum, a pediatric occupational therapist, owner of Aimee’s Babies, a child development company, and creator of STEM Starts Now, a digital subscription program designed to support parents of young children in early childhood development and kindergarten readiness. She explains why it’s critical to promote STEM learning to our babies early in life and how to do it.
