Increase Your Knowledge

**Preschoolers** **are constantly building and creating**, so it's the perfect time to introduce basic engineering concepts and activities. View the videos below to find out how.

Learn the engineering concepts you’ll need to teach young children.

Isn't engineering too advanced for early learners? We get that question a lot. Why? Because engineering sounds complicated—like something only older kids or adults can do.

But engineering is just problem-solving. It's about identifying a problem and designing a solution—then testing and tweaking that solution to make it better. Engineering can be as simple as building a block tower that doesn’t topple over or determining the best ramp angle for a toy truck.
