At Little Thinkers ABC Preschool and Childcare, we believe that curiosity is the foundation of lifelong learning. Our STEM and Robotics programs are designed to spark imagination while introducing children to the fascinating world of science, technology, engineering, and math. These programs are not about rote memorization but about encouraging exploration, critical thinking, and creativity. When children engage in hands-on activities, they begin to connect ideas, see patterns, and understand how things work.
Our educators create an environment where young learners can experiment, test, and refine their ideas in a supportive and nurturing atmosphere. Whether it’s building a small structure, coding a robot, or exploring the physics behind motion, every experience nurtures confidence and curiosity.
The Importance of STEM in Early Childhood
STEM education builds essential life skills that go far beyond the classroom. It helps children develop the ability to think logically, solve problems independently, and collaborate with others. In Oregon, especially within the Portland NW region—known as the Silicon Forest—these skills are incredibly valuable. By exposing children to STEM concepts early, we help them see how their creativity can contribute to a world driven by technology and innovation.
Children learn to approach challenges with an open mind and to see mistakes as opportunities to learn. These early experiences create a foundation for academic success and personal growth that carries into their future education.
Robotics: Where Play Meets Purpose
One of the most exciting elements of our curriculum is our Robotics program. At Little Thinkers ABC, learning happens through play, and robotics provides the perfect bridge between fun and discovery. Children explore how technology works by building, programming, and experimenting with age-appropriate robotics kits.
Each activity strengthens problem-solving skills while building understanding in sequencing, logic, and engineering. More importantly, children gain a sense of accomplishment as their creations come to life, reinforcing their confidence in their ability to innovate.
Connecting Education to the Real World
We’re proud to collaborate with local technology companies throughout Oregon to bring real-world experiences into the classroom. These partnerships give our students a glimpse into future possibilities and show them how what they learn today connects to the jobs of tomorrow.
This real-world integration helps children develop not only knowledge but also purpose. They begin to understand that their ideas can shape the world around them, encouraging them to dream big and believe in their potential.
