When the holidays roll around, it can be difficult to find activities to keep your kids entertained. But there’s no need to worry! Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) activities are the perfect way to keep your kids engaged and learning during their holiday break. One activity your kids can do is create a homemade hovercraft. You can easily find instructions online for how to make a hovercraft out of everyday household items. Once they’ve created it, they can experiment with different materials and shapes to find out which one makes the hovercraft travel the furthest. Another fun STEM holiday activity is engineering a roller coaster. All you need is a few supplies, such as cardboard, Popsicle sticks, and paper clips, and your kids can create their own miniature roller coaster. This activity encourages problem solving, creative thinking, and an understanding of basic physics. If your kids like programming and coding, there are plenty of holiday-themed coding activities they can do. From creating a virtual holiday card to designing a game or simulation, coding activities are a great way to teach your kids the basics of coding while also having fun. Finally, you can introduce your kids to robotics by having them.
