“A child’s brain is more powerful, more complex and cleverer than any computer ever built”.

Do you think that your kids are the only ones who sense they are once again alive when spring arrives? There are times when children have too many questions based on the facts as they are still in the process of exploring the evolution of Plants/animals and human beings. Plants have something called phytochromes in their stems, leaves, and flowers and these phytochromes are stimulated by light and trigger a process that tells buds on branches to begin sprouting when nights become shorter.

Use these above experiments to answer the common questions you’regrowing up kids might have about the world around them. As a Parent, I can see a backyard turn into a science lab as if I have a scientist with me!

“The true signs of intelligence is imagination more than knowledge”

I was wondering my daughter putting efforts in making an ice cream, and end ed up with a tasty frozen treat! There is actually a lot of stimulating chemistry that goes on behind making an ice cream. She narrated her side of the story how she started out with refrigerated ingredients and then needed to cool them down to turn them turn into ice cream, it was a total fun I could see. Questions like- How do the components change during the process? How important it is that the ice-cream is cooled to a certain temperature? In this science activity, she made the ice-cream herself and explored best ways to make it become a creamy delicious treat!

Believe that somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.

Our actions today while raising up our children will have a greater impact on growing next generation. STEM initiative currently being discussed at the state and national level through activities in schools is a good start for children who are inquisitive by nature and wish to explore in the very field. Good news is that a lot of time and energy is invested into middle and high school for the STEM activities. Enjoy our fun science facts for kids. Learn interesting earth facts, amazing chemistry facts, cool space facts, funny facts about animals and much more. Did you know that the ears of a cricket are located on its front legs? Or that sound travels 4 times faster in water than it does through air? Science is a fascinating subject with many amazing things to learn and discover. Thankfully you’ve got a lot of time to research, the average human only sleeps for about 35% of the day compared to 80% for armadillos and sloths, now that’s lazy!

Early childhood science education is indeed important?

A study says that having cheese at the end of a meal can help neutralise the acids in your mouth and reduce the chance of tooth decay. For the young learners, science is a leeway of their everyday world. We rarely need to teach young children how to explore, wonder, discover, and through experiments as they have the knack do it naturally. It’s a complete myth that we have to persuade children to make them believe science is fun. Science has always been a natural fun for children… if presented in the right way and a proper encouragement is a part of teaching them.

When generally people say they do not like science, it is likely that because of unreasonable experiences they had as a kid. It was that negative experience that established a negative opinion. That’s why it’s so important how to create wonderful experiences that inspire children through play, questions, exploration and solving solve simple problems.As amazing experiences usually turn into unforgettable learning experiences. When it is about teaching science, educators have tremendous impact on shaping the thoughts of children. A Research shows that children likely have formed an opinion about science as they reach the age of 7. That indeed puts an incredible amount of responsibility on early childhood professionals or the educators for that matter.

Trying hard to think through how to start home-schooling? It doesn’t matter whether you are new to the whole concept of teaching, you will find useful resources to discover your child’s academic potential here at Azotus (www.azotus.in)which is an activity hub for all age brackets from toddler, pre k, kindergarten, 1st grade- 5th grade. Worksheets would prove to be an ultimate learning tool for kids who have begun writing and learning at home. Come let’s grab our kit from Amazon today.

As a parent, I strongly believe that growing up should be a complete fun also a very important thing is that children need a little extra love and support when life becomes a bit demanding and challenging. Expert Counselling at Azotus (www.azotus.in) for children allows kids to identify their feelings and worries that are troubling them which they otherwise are unable to share. We have come with this segment so they the kids can be understood better and establish their place in the world there accepting the challenges in future.
