It’s a balancing act. If you try to force it, it becomes un-fun. Don’t let STEM become the thing that your children dread because it was always pushed upon them.

Figure out what children enjoy and provide opportunities around that. Things like LEGO are a good introduction, if they’re into LEGO. Programming-style games are fun, if they’re into games.

Doing things with your child can make them interesting (up until the age where you become uncool, of course).
