British Science Week: early years activity pack (2025)
This activity pack provides a range of activities that promote cross-curricular learning, so that STEM can be linked to other curriculum subjects and to children's own backgrounds, lives and interests. It has been designed for British Science Week 2025 on the theme of 'change and adapt'.
Activities are suitable for children to complete in any setting, either in school, a club, an organisation, or at home with their families.
Get children thinking about how the world is changing and how we can adapt to those changes. You can also think about the types of change and adaptation we see in STEM, with endless options. For inspiration, the activities in the pack include:
- Let’s create an animal
- Camouflage caterpillars
- Let’s make a paper chain caterpillar
- Deep sea yoga discovery
- Be seen be safe
- Rocket reach
- Weeds that grow everywhere
- See and eat sprouting vegetables
