It’s never been more important to keep the children outdoors and away from screens, and for boys and girls obsessed with all things STEM, this shouldn’t be too hard. There are plenty of activities they can do when they have some downtime that will keep their brains active and engaged.
Why not expand their knowledge with an entertaining trivia quiz, game or get them to make up their own! Do some Hide & Seek Rock Painting in the great outdoors, visit a museum or bake a cake. Or you could build something, get musical or complete a puzzle together. We’ve included some other STEM ideas below for outdoor (and indoor!) play.
